Tony Gonzales is a Navy veteran and former cryptologist who represents one of the largest and most diverse congressional districts in the country, stretching from San Antonio to El Paso along the U.S.-Mexico border. Known as one of the more moderate voices in the Republican caucus, he has drawn criticism from some conservatives for his willingness to support bipartisan legislation on issues like gun safety and immigration reform. His military background and border district experience have shaped his pragmatic approach to national security and immigration policy, sometimes putting him at odds with hardline members of his own party.
