Greetings!

Happy St. Patrick's Day! I wanted to take a moment to share with you a recap on what happened last week in Texas' 22nd District and the United States House of Representatives.
This Week in Washington
Rep. Troy E. Nehls Introduces the Airport Technology and Efficiency Act of 2023
I am proud to introduce the Airport Technology and Efficiency Improvement Act of 2023.

We all know that traveling can be a stressful experience, especially when you have to allot more time to account for the security process in airports. This technology has the potential for airports to decrease the wait times at security points, manage crowd traffic, and protect critical infrastructure.

This Week in TX-22
High School Congressional Art Competition is Now Open
My office is now accepting Congressional Art Competition submissions.

The Congressional Art Competition began in 1982 to provide an opportunity for members of Congress to encourage and recognize the artistic talents of their young constituents. Since then, over 650,000 high school students have been involved with the nationwide competition.

The Congressional Art Competition is sponsored by the Members of the U.S. House of Representatives and is open to all high school students in our District. The winning artwork of our district’s competition will be displayed for one year in the U.S. Capitol, and receive two plane tickets to Washington, D.C. The rules, regulations, application, and checklist can be found on the website
Elementary and Middle School Youth Art Competition is Now Open
The Youth Art Competition is open to all elementary and middle school students in our district. We will have two categories: Kindergarten – 5th and 6th – 8th grade, with one winner per group. The winning artwork of our district’s competition will be displayed for six months in our Washington, D.C. office, then in the district office. Visit the website to see the rules and application process.

To stay up to date on my office and the competition, please continue to monitor my weekly newsletter. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to call my district office at 346-762-6600 or fill out this form to email my team.
