Two North Texas Members of Congress are backing a “Take Our Border Back Convoy” planned to the Texas, Arizona, and California borders from January 29 through February 3, 2024.
Collin County Congressman Keith Self has tweeted his support:
Dallas & Tarrant County Congresswoman Beth Van Duyne voiced her support during a Fox Business News Channel appearance:
“I say bring those beautiful, huge semis, those 18-wheeler bad boys down here to protect our border. They need to understand that … they can’t sweep this under the rug. People are opening their eyes to it, and I hope it is a fantastic convoy, and I hope it does, you know, shed more light on it, and you’re seeing people from around the country. I mean, they’re even talking about having folks from Canada now come down because they see the damage that is being caused. So yeah, bring those bad boys down.” –Congresswoman Beth Van Duyne (January 25, 2024)
Media Matters for America which Wikipedia describes as a “left-leaning media watchdog group” characterizes the “Take Our Border Back” convoy as “organized by election deniers and anti-vaxxers.“
