Texas Governor Greg Abbott just received the âFriends of Zionâ award in Israel, for his outstanding support and friendship of the Jewish state and of the Jewish people. âAnybody who is an enemy of Israel is an enemy of Texas,â Governor Abbott proudly said. Find one relevant Democrat who would make that statement. You wouldnât be able to, because there arenât any! #Jexodus!
Itâs a tremendous honor to receive the Friends of Zion Award.
This award recognizes global leaders who have supported the nation of Israel & Jewish people.
Together, we will continue to build an even stronger friendship between Israel, the Jewish community & the state of Texas. pic.twitter.com/pmXdLYnu4G

Cecilia and I laid a wreath in remembrance of the Holocaust victims at the Yad Vashem Museum in Jerusalem.
Texas will always remember and pray for the victims of this horrific time in human history.
We must work to ensure it never happens again.
