FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WOWO) – Senator Todd Young was in Fort Wayne on Friday morning to receive an endorsement from the National Border Patrol Council at the Allen County GOP Headquarters.

Young commented during the press conference that it was unheard of historically for somebody from the Midwest to receive an endorsement from border patrol. President of the National Border Patrol Council, Brandon Judd, spoke during the event. He said that the council gives very few endorsements, but that Senator Young wants to do what is right for all citizens in the United States.

Judd also said that every state is a border state because what crosses at the border, does not stay at the border. He went on to say that the border patrol is dealing with people from 157 different countries.

Senator Young spoke about the importance of border security and promoting policies to improve the problems at the border. He said in April of this year, more than 234,000 illegal immigrants were apprehended and that there has also been in increase in seizures of heroin and fentanyl.

He said border barriers, keeping Title 42 in place, and putting pressure on the Biden administration by voting in more pro border security conservatives this November are all things to help fix the border issues.

that’s nice — but overall, Young is the weak link in the Indiana delegation in DC, too quick to go-along-to-get -along

You’re made an accurate assessment of Young’s dismal record in dc.
To review his voting score from the Heritage Foundation go to heritageaction.com/scorecard
You’ll find that his record speaks for itself. I think we sent the wrong Todd to DC but I’m grateful for Attorney General Todd Rokita as he stands up to government overreach – at all levels but especially here at home.

Agree on the wrong Todd in DC. Rip van Todd has been asleep for 4.5 years. At election time he comes alive an d we see his persona all over the news announcing worthless legislation. He took a sacred oath to protect and defend the US Constitution. Yet nearly every vote makes the US Government larger and more powerful and The People weaker. Under his rule, we are rapidly transmogrifying from Citizen to serf, from free men and women to subjects! Lets see how he votes on the gun control fraud bills that are coming.
