Congresswoman Monica De La Cruz from Texas's 15th district attended the inauguration of Donald J. Trump as the 47th President of the United States, alongside Vice President J.D. Vance.

She highlighted the role Hispanic Americans played in their victory, particularly emphasizing communities like South Texas. "Our community understands the value of hard work, family, and opportunity," she said. De La Cruz looks forward to collaborating with the new administration on issues such as border security, economic growth, and protecting seniors to benefit families in South Texas.
