Issues

Secure Our Borders

Victor has been in the fight on our Southern Border for his entire career. Having served as a Supervisory Special Agent for the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), his extensive experience includes everything from engaging in high level diplomacy, to battling human trafficking, to fighting to seek justice after a cartel ambush and spearheading legislation to
protect our agents serving abroad. Victor understands that the $5 billion Congress has allocated for fencing and wall construction on our Southern border has the force of law, and Joe Biden is breaking that law by halting construction. Victor will ensure that our borders are secured and that the wall is constructed, because he knows firsthand that border security is
national security.

Defund CRT

As a father of two living in Southlake, Texas, Victor is already in the fight to keep Critical Race Theory and other radical, leftist indoctrination out of schools. Victor understands that our children should be focusing on learning English, math, science, and history – not subjected to politicized agendas. As Land Commissioner, Victor will ensure that the School Land Board never directs funds to support radical programs like CRT.

Make America Energy Independent

Texans know that oil and gas means jobs and growth. After Joe Biden sidelined oil and gas production in Texas, gas prices began to hit historic highs. Victor Avila will fight back against the Biden Administration’s misguided policies restricting oil and gas production in Texas.

Protect the Alamo

The Alamo is an essential part of Texas history and culture, and is a source of pride for Texans. As a born-and-raised Texan, Victor values our history and will always fight to preserve it. Victor will fight any attempt to remove or move our monuments and won’t allow revisionist progressives to tarnish any representation of Texas history.

Defend Constitutional Carry

When Victor became an ICE agent, he swore an oath to defend and uphold the Constitution – that includes the Second Amendment. Victor takes his oath and the Right to Bear Arms seriously, and he exercises that right every day. Constitutional Carry is now the law of the land in Texas (as it should be), and Victor will always fight to preserve it.

Honor Our Veterans

While serving as an ICE Agent, Victor was shot multiple times and his partner was killed in a cartel ambush in Mexico. Victor understands firsthand what it means to sacrifice and put your life on the line for your country. As Land Commissioner, Victor will work to ensure our veterans are receiving the care and support they need, and that our Veterans programs are well-funded and working efficiently.

Secure Our Elections

Victor knows that just as without a border, we have no country, if our elections are not secure, we do not have a democracy. Every citizen has the right to feel confident that their vote counts. Victor knows that it is essential to our Constitutional Republic that election integrity is prioritized and defended.

Hurricane Recovery

Victor understands the best way to reduce the human and economic cost of natural disasters in Texas is to work proactively to prevent damage in the first place. Victor will utilize his extensive Crisis Management experience and work hand in hand with local, state, and federal authorities to develop hurricane protection and flood mitigation projects while working to protect and restore Texas’ coastline.
