Our campaign momentum continues! In our campaign for Texas State Senate, I’m excited to share a major endorsement from U.S. Senator Ted Cruz. It’s a true honor to earn the endorsement of Senator Ted Cruz, who is on the front line in our nation’s capital fighting courageously every day for our freedoms. I look forward […]
Friends, The momentum continues with more exciting news to share from the campaign trail! I am honored to receive endorsements from both former U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich and Lt. Gen. Jerry Boykin with the Family Research Council. Both men are national conservative leaders that I’ve worked with to fight federal overreach, and it’s a […]
Friends, Our momentum continues! As you know, I announced my candidacy for the Texas Senate last Monday. Since announcing, the outpouring of support has been humbling. Today, in less than a week, I’m honored to release the names of over 700 supporters backing our campaign. I’m also grateful that Congressman Roger Williams is now […]
Friends, as we know the Democrats in Texas have fully embraced the radical agenda of their national party and are promoting policies that are dangerous to public safety and a threat to individual liberty. They want to open our borders, defund the police, wreck our oil and gas industry and manufacturing base, increase taxes, and […]
On Thursday night, the Texas Legislature adjourned our second special (extra) legislative session of this year. Just as predicted, the Democrat’s publicity stunt leaving Texas was a complete and utter failure. They took chartered flights, hobnobbed in D.C.—with some even taking European vacations—but in the end, they couldn’t stop us. We were still able to decisively […]

I do not believe that any government agency in Texas, including schools, should be allowed to mandate masks or vaccinations. Those decisions should be left up to individuals, parents, etc. I have also always avoided government telling businesses what to do. However, I do […]
It is day 20 of the 30-day Special Legislative Session. Rumors were circulating that the Democrats might slowly trickle in this week but it isn’t looking very hopeful. The Texas Constitution requires that we have two-thirds of the House present (100 legislators) to conduct any business but we only have 83 Republicans. During the recent legislative […]
I know many of you feel a sense of urgency about the House Democrats fleeing Texas to D.C. on their private jet. I do as well. Believe me, I don’t like being stuck in Austin all summer away from family, work, church and my constituents. I don’t like missing our family vacation (they’re in Colorado […]
On Thursday, July 8th, the Texas Legislature will convene our first special session following the 87th Regular Legislative Session which ended on May 31st. Over the last few weeks, I’ve shared with you the many accomplishments of the recent legislative session but I also mentioned there was much work left undone. Over the next week, I’d […]
This is my ninth and final installment on accomplishments in the recent Texas legislative session that adjourned May 31st. Much good work has been overlooked. However, there was also much left undone. Next week I’ll begin to layout some things I believe the Texas Legislature must accomplish in the special session starting on July 8th and other special […]
