This is the Daily Civil Podcast for Monday, April 17th, I'm Virginia Allen. Mark your calendars

for Saturday, April 29th. On that day, thousands of people are gathering at the Texas State

Capitol in Austin to call on elected leaders to secure the southern border. The event

Texas Representative Chip Roy, former acting commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection
