ATLANTA, Ga. – Tea Party Patriots Citizens Fund (TPPCF) Chairman Jenny Beth Martin today released the following statement, announcing that the Super PAC associated with the nation’s largest Tea Party group has endorsed U.S. Rep. Mayra Flores for reelection in the seat representing Texas’s 34th Congressional District:

“As the first Mexican-born woman to serve in the Congress, Mayra Flores is no stranger to breaking down barriers. And as the wife of a U.S. Customs and Border Protection agent, she is familiar with the crisis at our southern border. As she says, ‘Illegal immigration encourages and funds human/child trafficking.’ She knows that the open borders policy of the Biden Administration is a disaster not just for her constituents, but for the vulnerable victims of the drug cartels that control the southern border. She is committed to securing that border and restoring order not just in border towns, but all across the country.

“She knows that inflation is always and everywhere a monetary phenomenon, as Milton Friedman said, and she knows that the only way to get inflation under control is to stop the reckless spending that fuels it and instead reduce taxes and cut regulations to help grow the supply side. She understands that a low-tax, less-regulation environment is necessary to create economic growth. As she says, ‘Texans know that when you get the government out of the way and let the private sector create jobs, the economy will flourish.’

“When it comes to education, she knows that parents must be in control.

“She is a strong believer in the Tea Party values of personal freedom, economic freedom, and a debt-free future. She will be a committed defender of the constitutional principles of individual liberty and limited government.

“Consequently, on behalf of Tea Party Patriots Citizens Fund, I am pleased to endorse U.S. Rep. Mayra Flores for reelection in the seat representing Texas’s 34th Congressional District, and I urge all voters in Texas’s 34th District to make a plan to be a voter for her in the November general election.”
