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 COMMISSIONER SID MILLER ON MCALLEN BORDER PATROL AMBUSH
The men and women of the United States Border Patrol are heroes, risking their lives every day to protect this nation and uphold the rule of law. The abuse they too often face, whether physical attacks or political scapegoating, is a disgrace. Today’s ambush attack in McAllen is entirely unacceptable and un-American. Texans will not tolerate violence against law enforcement, and I am glad this threat was neutralized quickly without further loss of life. Our prayers are with the agents who were injured and their families.  [More]

SID MILLER ADDRESSES FALSE CLAIMS REGARDING CLOUD SEEDING AND WEATHER MODIFICATION 
As an eighth-generation farmer and rancher, I know what it’s like to watch the sky during a drought, hoping for rain. When Texas experiences a dry spell, I don’t depend on artificial weather manipulation; I turn to my faith. I kneel and pray, just as many farmers, ranchers, and rural communities do. Let’s put an end to the conspiracy theories and stop blaming others. Our priority should be the recovery efforts in the Texas Hill Country, as we stand in solidarity with our fellow Texans.  [More]

SID MILLER ADDRESSES PRESIDENT TRUMP’S VISIT TO KERRVILLE, TEXAS
“President Trump’s visit to Kerrville comes at a crucial time as Texans are suffering from historic and devastating flooding. This is the leadership Texans know to expect from President Trump: present, proactive, and ready to act when disaster occurs. President Trump is committed to strengthening emergency response efforts so that what happened in the Hill Country never happens again, and I will fight with him every step of the way. We’re not just going to rebuild, we’re going to rebuild stronger, smarter, and faster. Hundreds of Texans remain unaccounted for. As searches continue, I hope Texans will continue to join me in keeping those affected in their prayers. In times of disaster, we must unite in solidarity and support our neighbors.”  [More]
