Texans Bossed Around By Some Bruja?

Former U.S. Rep. Mayra Flores said she has no problem with requiring South Texans to carry passports to prove their citizenship.

Flores, a Republican running to recapture the congressional seat she briefly held in 2022, made that assertion Thursday night during a debate with U.S. Rep. Vicente Gonzalez, the Democrat incumbent. Gonzalez was explaining why he voted against a border security bill championed by former President Donald Trump.

Gonzalez said that legislation, known as Secure the Border Act, would have required South Texas residents to present a passport at an interior border patrol checkpoint in Falfurrias, a town nearly 80 miles north of McAllen. The checkpoint is an unavoidable stop for Valley residents traveling north.

When I got my latest passport a few years ago, I also got a small ID that apparently is good in USA, Canada, and Mexico. It was only like $15 IIRC.

I don't know if you have pay full freight for the passport (which was like $70) or if you could just buy the NAFTA card by itself.

Vicente probably wanted to punch Mayra like the Raiders lost on Sunday...
