Cities across the country like Minneapolis, like Portland, like Seattle, and unfortunately, even the city of Austin here in the state of Texas are doing things like defunding law enforcement agencies. In Texas, we do not turn our backs on our law enforcement officers. Texas is a law and order state, and we’re going to ensure we keep it that way.
