Texas Representative Brandon Gill expressed a desire to safeguard America's cultural identity for the next generation during his speech at the Republican National Convention today.

"Calling us racist does not work anymore. Because you know what? I don’t care what you call me, I just want my children to grow up in a country that they actually recognize," Gill said. He added that he wants his children to experience the same America and values taught by his parents and grandparents.

Gill, who represents Texas's 26th Congressional District, linked the comments to concerns over immigration policy and its impact on national cohesion. He argued that conservatives must conserve the country by avoiding the import of individuals whose principles clash with American governance and values.

"Our job as conservatives is to conserve our country. We cannot do that by importing welfare queens, and we cannot do that by importing people who hate us," Gill stated. He tied the issue to combating antisemitism and maintaining a society where citizens feel at home.

Gill has previously voiced similar views on preserving American identity amid demographic changes. As a member of the House, he has focused on immigration enforcement and related legislation.

Gill is married to Danielle D'Souza Gill and has two young children. His comments reflect a broader emphasis as Republicans continue prioritizing American citizens and traditional values in policy decisions.
