Texas Rep. Chip Roy announced Thursday that he’s running for attorney general in his home state.
The Freedom Caucus policy chair, who has occasionally clashed with his own party and with President Donald Trump, said in a statement that he will crack down on “judge-made mandates that Texas pay for illegals in our public schools” and other problems he sees with the state.
“Texas is under assault — from open-border politicians, radical leftists and faceless foreign corporations that threaten our sovereignty, safety and our way of life,” Roy said.
