Governor Greg Abbott: "On this Good Friday, we come to the cross, and remember the ultimate sacrifice Jesus made to save us all from sin."

Rep. Chip Roy: “As Attorney General, I will challenge - from every angle - the misinterpretation of the 14th Amendment that has fueled illegal immigration and birth tourism."

Rep. Brandon Gill: "Good Friday isn't about the universal virtue of 'sacrifice.' It's about Christ's particular sacrifice - his brutal crucifixion - a real, historic event with eternal consequences."

Rep. Pat Fallon: "More than 6 million Americans reported tipped wages across restaurants, salons, delivery, and hospitality. With No Tax on Tips, they will take home about $1,300 more on average."
