Merry Christmas & Happy New Years
I hope everyone’s Christmas was restful and full of cheer. As the year 2022 concludes, I would like to reflect on a couple of key moments in Congress and our Texas 17th Congressional District this year. Moreover, I believe these moments can provide a sense of aspiration for the 118th Congress, starting January 3rd. I am looking forward to the new year, and I hope you are too.
The 118th House of Representatives
After a hard-fought victory, Republicans are officially the Majority party in the U.S. House of Representatives. With the American people’s blessing, we will be able to stymy the Democrat and Biden administration’s radical agenda. The Republican Party agenda will address many topics that have been put off and solve our nation’s most pressing issues.
I would like to thank my constituents again for their overwhelming support during the 2022 midterm elections. With it, I will continue to fight for our way of life in Central Texas and provide more opportunities for individuals to increase their standard of living.
Texans for a Secure Border
2022 has been a hard year for many counties and families who bear the daily costs of our unsecured southern border. While the Biden administration insists it is under control, the American people know the truth. Every city has become a border city as illegal aliens are released across different regions of our country.
This December my GOP colleagues from Texas and I unveiled our plan to secure the border in 2023. Our framework to address our border crisis includes completing physical border infrastructure, fixing border enforcement policies, enforcing our laws in the interior of the United States, and targeting cartels and criminal organizations. Securing our southern border will be a top priority for us Texas Republicans next year.
FY2023 District Projects
Last year, my office worked hard to secure federal funding for several projects in our congressional district. They will allow our communities to grow to meet our increasing infrastructure and population needs. I am proud of the priorities listed above and I believe these developments will support Central & East Texas’ position as one of the nation’s most sought-after places to live, work, learn, and raise a family.
Sincerely, |
