HOUSTON — Colin Allred’s record on every major issue is in perfect sync with the far-left wing of the Democratic Party. But when it comes to immigration, Colin Allred is more extreme than even Border Czar Kamala Harris.
Both Allred and Harris have supported the restructuring of ICE, but Allred has taken it one step further. He recently touted an endorsement from NextGen America, an organization that has outright called for ICE to be abolished and for the police to be defunded. He even attended a campaign where they handed out cards with instructions to help illegal immigrants evade law enforcement and potential deportation.
Colin Allred has gone as far as denying the existence of the border crisis, calling the border wall “racist”, and has consistently voted against common-sense border security legislation that would secure our border.
It has been 48 days since Can’t Comment Colin held a press conference.

In June 2019, Allred voted AGAINST an MTR to H.R. 6 that would automatically refer illegal aliens who were denied green cards on the basis of criminal activity, national security risks, or were violent gang members to Homeland Security.
A Cruz Campaign spokesperson issued the following statement.
“The border crisis is a top-of-mind issue for Texas voters and Colin Allred has consistently voted for open border policies and has proudly touted support from an organization that consistently calls to defund ICE. There is nothing moderate about Colin Allred. In fact, he’s even more radical than Kamala Harris.”
