Dear Texans,
In case you missed it, the US economy grew 3.5 percent in the third quarter, which boosted corporate profits to a six-year high - this is great news for Americans! House Republicans are committed to working with President Trump to deliver a stronger, more reliable economy for you, your business, and your family. Click here to read more.
Dear Texans,
This weekend, America lost a great servant and I lost a great friend. George H.W. Bush epitomized everything wonderful about America and, like his country, he was tough, strong and kind. He changed the nation and he changed the world.
Dear Texans,
I hope all of you in Texas' 25th District had a wonderful Thanksgiving filled with family and loved ones. For those of you with family members in the Armed Forces who were unable to be together this year, please know that we are all grateful for their service, and will continue to pray for their safety.
Crisis at the Border
Dear Texans,
In case you missed it, last week, I sent out a letter asking veterans in our district to share their stories with me all month long in honor of Veterans Day. Servicemen and women in this nation have sacrificed a great deal for our freedoms, and I am humbled to represent them in Congress.
Dear Texans,
Nine years ago today, Fort Hood was devastated when a gunman opened fire on a Soldier Readiness Processing site that was filled with hundreds of deploying and returning soldiers. 13 people lost their lives and over 30 were injured. This is a day we must never forget, and I will continue to pray for those who had to say goodbye to loved ones too soon during this tragic event.
Help for Central Texas
Dear Texans,
Texas' southern border is being targeted by potentially dangerous illegal immigrants who believe they are above the rule of law. Last week, in an effort to combat these threats, President Trump ordered additional forces to deploy to the border to assist the Department of Homeland Security with their southern border security mission.
Dear Texans,
At the start of this Congress, small business optimism was low. Employers and workers needed relief from burdensome regulations in order to grow their business. Last year, we passed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which slashed taxes for Main Street and allowed it to breathe again.
✓ 20 percent small business tax deduction
✓ Immediate business equipment expensing
✓ Small business optimism is reaching record highs
Dear Texans,
There's nothing quite like a Friday night in Texas - friends, family, and high school football! I was honored to attend the Burleson High School vs. Centennial High School football game and participate in the coin toss. It was a great game and congratulations to the Centennial football team on a hard-earned win - Go Spartans!
