“I rise to express my sorrow on the passing of President Ronald Reagan. I had the privilege of meeting President Reagan twice--once when I participated in a G.I. Forum event in El Paso, TX, honoring veterans, and the other time while I was in the Border Patrol providing security as the President visited Brownsville, TX. It was easy to see that President Reagan was blessed with a good nature and positive spirit. All Americans remember his abiding love of country and strong defense of freedom. President Reagan has left a lasting legacy in the way he confronted communism and helped to end the Cold War. He was the kind of leader we needed during those difficult years. For that, our Nation, and the world, will be forever grateful. On behalf of my constituents in El Paso, I extend heartfelt condolences to the Reagan family during this very sad time.”
