Congratulations to the Knicks for breaking their 53 year title drought. They have a team that plays very well together.

Despite coming up short in the finals, the Spurs had an incredible season and have an even bigger future ahead. Think about it - we made it to the finals after missing the playoffs for about seven years straight!
Tonight, let's show what our city is made of. Passion for the game and respect for one another. Go Spurs Go.
We must shut down Dilley and stop more children from having their childhoods robbed of them.
Alejandro is just 15. He missed his last days as a sophomore at Churchill High School, where he played soccer. Thanks to the overwhelming support of his family, friends, coaches, teachers, and the entire San Antonio community, they were released.
Alejandro and his dad are back home where they belong. They were locked away at the Dilley trailer prison for nearly a month. They should have never been there in the first place—they are asylum seekers who did everything the right way.
Great news! Alejandro & his dad Jairo will be released from the Dilley trailer prison tomorrow. Alejandro missed his last days of 10th grade at Churchill High School and should have never been locked up. Thanks to all who pushed for their release. Keep speaking up, your voice is making a difference!
I met with Alejandro at Dilley. He told me how much he misses his mother and was having trouble eating. They are asylum seekers and did everything the right way. They do not belong at Dilley—no child does. ICE should release them immediately and let Alejandro and his dad return home.
Alejandro is a high school student in San Antonio. He was on his way to a soccer game when ICE surrounded his home and took him and his father. They have been locked away for over 3 weeks at the Dilley trailer prison. He missed his last days of 10th grade.
I voted NO to giving ICE billions more to imprison children and brutalize communities.
I have hope that our country will not be defined by the Administration's actions at Dilley but by the voices of countless Americans who are calling for it to be shut down.
Children like five-year-old Liam Ramos who spent time at the Dilley trailer prison will live with that trauma for the rest of their lives.
Interns are the heart of Congress, and I am excited to work with the next generation of leaders. Applications are due July 5, 2026. To learn how to apply, click the link below [https://tr.ee/internships].
Fall 2026 internship applications are now open!
We are looking for college students or recent grads for our San Antonio and Washington, D.C. offices who want to learn and contribute to the democratic process.
More to come on Wednesday.
Go Spurs go!
We’ve seen the brutality of ICE in our community, and I will not vote to give them billions dollars more. Instead, we could use all that money to pay for healthcare and lower the cost of gas, rent, and groceries.
The Senate passed a bill in the middle of the night that gives ICE and CBP $70 billion to fund President Trump’s mass deportation campaign. They’re already sitting on an extra $100 billion.
The House just passed a War Powers Resolution in a bipartisan rebuke of Trump’s illegal war in Iran. It is a war that was not authorized by the Congress or consented to by the American people. The Senate should take it up immediately and put an end to the conflict.
Thank you to leaders at U.S. Global Leadership Coalition for meeting with me today to discuss how our partnerships abroad can strengthen Texas and the country.
From supporting businesses to strengthening healthcare, your work is uplifting communities.
I am glad that Secretary Rubio acknowledged these serious concerns and I look forward to getting briefed on the matter.
