[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Thanks to the wisdom of past Texas leaders, our state constitution requires the Legislature to pass a balanced budget every two years. While this constraint means that we must make tough choices on which programs to fund, it ultimately forces us to be good stewards of the state’s resources. In Texas, we don’t have […]
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] In the midst of a fairly busy national news week, including the Presidential Inauguration, the Texas Legislature is in the organization and preparation phase of the 140-day session. While we wait for committee assignments, my staff and I have been working on our priorities, filing legislation, and preparing for the busy days ahead. For […]
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] On Tuesday, January 12th, for the 87th time in the history of our great state, the Texas Legislature convened for its 140-day long, biennial legislative session. It is my honor to represent the amazing folks of Archer, Baylor, Clay, Foard, Knox, and Wichita Counties (aka House District 69) for the 5th time. This session […]
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Tuesday, October 13, 2020 Is today the first day of “Early Voting” or is it really just the first of 19 days that you are allowed to vote for the Nov 3rd elections? Calling it “Early Voting” makes it sound like you are doing something wrong by voting early and should wait until the “real” […]
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Special Election Beginning this Monday, September 14 through Tuesday, September 29, voting will be taking place for the Texas State Senate spot that includes all of Archer, Clay, and Wichita Counties (along with others not in my house district). This race will determine who fills the State Senate seat currently occupied by Pat Fallon. […]
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Early voting for November 3rd elections begins on October 13th, less than 40 days away! In addition to the presidential and US Senate election (Cornyn), the race for Texas Republicans on this year’s ballot who are running for State Representative will be the toughest many have ever had. Texas House races will receive special […]
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Early voting for the March primaries kicks off on Tuesday, February 18th with the races to conclude on March 3rd. As we always do, we’ll provide information in the body of the newsletter on how to find out the logistics of voting in your area and other voting resources. As a reminder, I rarely, […]
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] As some of you may know, I have been blessed this year to be unopposed in both the Republican primary election and in the general election in November. That means that I will be “reelected” as your state representative for another two year term (2021-22). The best part of being unopposed is that it […]
Every session feels a little different as you get drawn into different issues and responsibilities. The 86th was one that was defined, for me, by my committee responsibilities and the world of healthcare that they encompassed. It’s an incredibly important policy arena and, while the learning curve is steep, I am very glad that I […]
We are just over one month removed from the end of the 86th Legislative Session. Since the 20-day deadline for the Governor to veto bills has come and gone, we now know what the final work product of the 86th Legislature looks like. These next few newsletters are my attempt to give you an overview […]
