Rep. Roger Williams, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Texas' 25th district, has made several statements on social media concerning immigration and border security. Williams, who replaced Lloyd Doggett in 2013, has a history of legislative focus on these issues.

On March 11, 2025, Rep. Williams posted a tweet emphasizing the removal of over 50,000 undocumented immigrants under the current administration. He stated his commitment to ensuring that "every illegal immigrant killer, rapist, and drug dealer is off American soil," asserting that "law and order is back." The full post can be found here.

Later that day, Williams announced the introduction of legislation aimed at enhancing national security by screening migrants against the terror watchlist. He described this bill as providing President Biden with "another tool to safeguard our nation." More details about this announcement are available here.

On March 13, 2025, Williams participated in an interview with KTRH News to discuss his proposed legislation further. During the discussion, he reiterated his stance on maintaining law and order and highlighted the importance of being aware of individuals entering the country.
