  MILLIONAIRE CONGRESSMAN  VICENTE GONZALEZ  OF  TEXAS DISTRICT 15  AND HIS RECORD ON BORDER SECURITY It seems like it was only yesterday that the border chaos had been gotten under control.  The "stay in Mexico" policy was working, and those applying for refugee status were required to remain outside the United States until the date of their official hearings. And here we are, three full months into 2022, with a border under siege by thousands from all over the world openly crashing into South Texas.  With congressional districts on the border literally in crisis, it would be expected that their representatives would be working around the clock to mitigate this dire situation.  But, think again! Our Mideast allies in Israel have repeatedly demonstrated how crucial walls are to their national security.  This lesson has been lost on the inept bunglers in the Democrat Party, who now champion free access to America for anyone from anywhere.

A TAX HOLIDAY!

This weekend has seen the annual flood of parents and students inundating retail establishments throughout Cameron County for this year's tax holiday, as they eagerly sought out bargains in back-to-school clothing and supplies. The traffic in proximity to shopping centers was heavy and, combined with soaring temperatures, getting about in Brownsville was more difficult than usual. Returning to Brownsville after meeting with supporters of Friends of Cameron County Residents in San Benito, my mind began to wander to the general subject of taxes.  Thinking about all the shoppers jamming the highways and byways, it was not a difficult mental hurdle to imagine what a positive shot to the local economy more tax holidays could be and, correspondingly, how negatively a property tax increase would affect the local distribution of goods and services and the future of entrepreneurs supplying them.  Keeping that in mind, along with how a proposed healthcare district would duplicat...

IT STINKS! A LETTER FROM BILL HUDSON TO THE HERALD

I read with disappointment that our elected officials, Senator Lucio, Representative Lucio, and Representative Olivera, are sponsoring a new taxing entity: a Hospital District. The Cameron Appraisal District certified property total for 2014 shows $16.831 billion of net taxable value. 2015 certified property values are not out yet, but are likely to be higher. At the tax rate of 25 cents per $100 of value, this would be a pot of tax money just over $42 million.  Not a bad "haul" to be allocated by the 9-member board of political appointees.  And this is especially so in the poorest county in the USA. This appears to be a political power grab, instigated by our elected representatives in State government, creating more taxes in order to have more power. I think this stinks.  $42 million of our money,taken from us in the form of taxes to be doled out by non-elected appointees. Shame on the Lucios and Representative Olivera  "We are already doing this..." was ...
