"In 2021, Crenshaw accused the Biden administration of provoking a crisis on the southern border by having a memorandum on deportations and reversing Trump's policies on asylum and illegal immigration.[109]" - "memorandum" should be "moratorium" Source article simply says "pause" -- Noshawn ( talk) 23:17, 20 June 2022 (UTC) reply

 Done Thanks for catching this. -- MelanieN ( talk) 23:29, 20 June 2022 (UTC) reply

If he served in the Navy 2006-2016, finished SEAL training in 2008, he didn't serve as a SEAL for 10 years, but only 8. The "10" comment needs fixed. WhoAmIYouDoNotKnow ( talk) 17:55, 21 August 2022 (UTC) reply

Fixed. It seems like source confusion due to vague wording. Likely they were referring to 10 years of Navy service. –  Muboshgu ( talk) 18:08, 21 August 2022 (UTC) reply

I've removed that part entirely as the information can easily be found on Texas's 2nd congressional district and doesn't need to be repeated. Thanks! ~ Eejit43 ( talk) 22:04, 17 January 2023 (UTC) reply
