Johnson Backs Herrera in Key Texas Race | San Antonio News
Description
House Speaker Mike Johnson rolled into San Antonio to back Republican nominee Brandon Herrera in Texas’s 23rd District, framing the race as vital to preserving GOP control of the House. Johnson emphasized border security through tech and community respect, not just walls, while also pledging to advance veteran care with new legislation and VA reforms. Democratic challenger Katy Padilla Stout countered with a personal story of hard work and the American dream, calling Johnson a “radical.” Herrera, emerging after incumbent Tony Gonzales bowed out amid a scandal, is rallying for unity and local priorities like Big Bend conservation and economic growth — all as Republicans gear up for a pivotal November showdown.
