Uvalde Schools Lock Down Weekly Due to Migrant Smuggling, Says Texas Congressman

EAGLE PASS, Texas — Congressman Tony Gonzales (R-TX) told reporters during a Monday press conference that Uvalde schools are under lockdown three to four times a week as migrant smugglers lead law enforcement on vehicle pursuits through the town. Gonzales and several other House members toured Uvalde and the region near Eagle Pass.

Gonzales said the tour involved a roundtable discussion with law enforcement, first responders, elected officials, and other community members from Uvalde, Kinney, Zavala, and Frio Counties.

The frequency of school safety lockdowns was an example of the impacts of increased migration on the community, according to Gonzales. “It’s been nearly 10 months since the Uvalde school shooting happened, and every single week in Uvalde County, the schools are going into lockdown three or four times a week — imagine if that’s in your community that just had this horrific incident where we had 21 innocent lives were murdered.” Gonzales says he was told the parents of local students are horrified when they receive lockdown alerts.
