SID MILLER STATEMENT ON DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE ESTABLISHING NATIONAL DEFENSE AREAS AT THE SOUTHERN BORDER
I fully support President Trump and the U.S. Department of Defense’s move to create National Defense Areas along the southern border. Farmers and ranchers, especially in border regions, face daily threats from illegal crossings, drug cartels, and human traffickers who damage property, steal resources, and endanger lives. This issue isn't limited to Texas; it poses a national security threat affecting our food supply and rural economies.  [More]

STATEMENT FROM SID MILLER COMMENDING THE SENATE FOR ADVANCING BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL
I commend Vice President JD Vance and the coalition of Senators who supported the Big Beautiful Bill, a transformative law that brings meaningful improvements to American agriculture and working families nationwide. This legislation contains essential provisions that aid Texas farmers and ranchers, secure our food supply, and boost rural economies. It also makes historic investments to revitalize domestic production, reduce bureaucratic red tape, and restore economic opportunities in often-overlooked communities.  [More]

STATEMENT FROM COMMISSIONER SID MILLER PRAISING SECRETARY BROOKE ROLLINS FOR USDA’S LIVESTOCK IMPORTS REOPENING PLAN
"I would like to thank President Trump, USDA Secretary Brooke Rollins, and their team at the USDA for their smart, data-driven decision to reopen U.S. ports to cattle, bison, and equines from Mexico. Agricultural producers and our rural economies depend on this cross-border commerce, and reopening our ports with strong, science-based protocols in place is the right decision. The USDA’s approach balances strong animal health safeguards with the urgent need to get our livestock trade moving again. Hats off to Secretary Rollins for getting this done for our ranchers across the nation."  [More]

STATEMENT FROM TEXAS AGRICULTURE COMMISSIONER SID MILLER ON THE SUPREME COURT’S RULING LIMITING USE OF NATIONWIDE INJUNCTIONS
Today’s Supreme Court decision is a victory for common sense and the rule of law. For too long, partisan judges, particularly those with a far-left agenda, have wielded universal injunctions as a political weapon to unilaterally halt lawful executive actions they personally disagreed with. This ruling rightly reins in that abuse and restores the right to make policy to the elected branches of government. Activist Federal judges in lower courts should not have the unchecked authority to impose sweeping, nationwide rulings that go far beyond the parties involved in a given case.  [More]
