Green Beret PAC and Border Patriot PAC Endorse Joshua McKee in Alabama’s 1st District

Joshua McKee, a retired Green Beret and Republican candidate for Congress in Alabama’s First District, has announced endorsements from Green Beret PAC and Border Patriot PAC. The two national organizations cited his military service and border security proposals as key reasons for backing him.

A spokesperson for Green Beret PAC said, “Joshua McKee exemplifies service before self. As a combat-tested Green Beret, he has the courage, judgment, and steady leadership our country needs in Congress.”

Border Patriot PAC added praise for McKee’s proposed border agenda: “Joshua understands that border security is national security. His plan to end catch-and-release, finish strategic barriers, empower frontline agents, and crack down on cartels is exactly what Alabama families and our country need.”

McKee welcomed the endorsements, saying they reflect the values of the Gulf Coast region. “Serving as a Green Beret taught me that America’s safety starts with strong leadership, a secure border, and a government that keeps its word to the people it serves,” he said. “I’m honored to earn the trust of Green Beret PAC and Border Patriot PAC. In Congress, I’ll fight to secure the border, support law enforcement, and stand up for our military families, small businesses, and taxpayers across the Gulf Coast.”

The endorsements are likely to bring momentum to McKee’s campaign, which focuses on reducing costs for working families, cutting wasteful federal spending, and ensuring veterans receive the care they deserve.
