Tony Gonzales, U.S. Representative (R-TX-23) ·
It’s crucial that first responders are able to communicate during emergency situations. That’s why I helped secure $5,484,000 for a nine-county region along the border to upgrade their radio systems, ensuring our first responders always have a reliable radio connection.
Voted Nay, 23 Dec 2022
Gonzales voted against the FY2023 omnibus. Two months later he said he helped secure $5,484,000 to upgrade border-region radio systems, a project he had requested in that same bill.
