Henry Cuellar for Congress | Proven Leadership for Texas

For decades, terrorists have attacked the American people. The strategy in the war against terrorism is for us to have a clear understanding of the enemy. Americans cannot continue to linger in false comfort, as terrorists conspire against us.

Terrorism is a threat to our national security. We must continue to improve security at our airports, seaports, and at our borders. Henry Cuellar will fight to provide more resources to help local governments with their efforts in providing homeland security; otherwise it becomes an unfunded mandate that local taxpayers have to pay.

Cuellar will fight to give our law enforcement agencies the resources and tools to keep known terrorists from entering our country. Cuellar will support legislation to fight cyber terrorism, find and fight terrorist cells in our country, making American terrorist targets less vulnerable to attack, and providing more resources to our first line defenders on our borders.

Henry Cuellar will not lose focus in what needs to be accomplished. However, we must all understand that progress requires all of us to be aware that every American is accountable for the impact we have on terrorism.
