A Recap of the Past Few Weeks
|
| It has certainly been a busy few weeks as I made my way across TX-36, visiting my fellow Texans across all the counties of the district! I enjoyed every meeting, dinner, and conversation as we all continue to work together to make this country as safe and economically secure as it can be. I want to provide you all with a little recap of last month's district work period because we covered some ground! It is truly an honor to represent each man, woman, and child that resides in the 36th Congressional District of Texas. |
Johnson Space Center Visit with Ivanka
|
It was special to have the opportunity to speak with our astronauts aboard the International Space Station when I visited Johnson Space Center (JSC) in Houston with Ivanka Trump. There is great work being done at JSC, and many exciting things are in store for America's space program in the coming months.

Honoring Tyler County Law Enforcement

Last month, I attended Tyler County's annual Law Enforcement Appreciation Dinner (pictured above). I never pass up a chance to let our local law enforcement officers know that I appreciate them and the good work they do to protect our communities.

| Prototypes of the Border Wall |
I learned so much during my trip to California to view the prototypes for the President's border wall. Our Immigration and Custom Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection agents are working hard to secure our borders and keep American citizens safe.

| Veterans Breakfast in Deer Park |
I have the privilege of representing more than 50,000 veterans in TX-36! It was a pleasure to get to visit in Deer Park with so many of the brave men and women who had the courage to put their lives on the line to defend this great nation.
I also had the honor of presenting an American flag that was flown over the U.S. Capitol and a copy of the Congressional Record commemorating his service to 100 year old veteran William "Bill" Antone (pictured above) for his military service during WWII. |

| Meeting with Rice Farmers |
I met with rice farmers in Chambers County to talk about the Farm Bill.

| Coin-Toss at Barbers Hill |
I was able to meet many of the students, staff, and parents from both Barbers Hill and Vidor while participating in the coin-toss before the football game a couple of weeks ago.
What an awesome game and great crowd of sports fans.
