‘They Just Use Immigrants For Political Power’: Texas Rep Mayra Flores Has Warning For Democrats

Republican Texas Rep. Mayra Flores told the Daily Caller’s Jorge Ventura that Democrats “use immigrants for political power” in an exclusive interview.

Speaking with the Caller, Flores said she flipped the Texas’ 34th congressional district because of funding, noting the district already had strong conservative values.

“I believe that the reason why this district hadn’t been flipped is we didn’t have the funding,” Flores said. “This district is already conservative, we’re all about faith, family and hard work. That’s who we are by nature, so I believe that because of my story, being born in Mexico, coming here to the U.S., working in the cotton fields, working at a young age, graduating from high school, becoming a respiratory care practitioner, a border patrol wife, the mother of four young children, that’s the American dream. That’s who we are today.”
