Introduced the Safer Schools Act of 2023
Texas Insider Report: WASHINGTON, D.C. – No child or teacher should ever feel unsafe in the classroom, and funding should not be an obstacle for administrators who want to proactively address their physical security concerns. I was proud to introduce H.R. 3618, the Safer Schools Act which allows public school districts to apply for grants directly from the Department of Justice to help with assessments for their campus security vulnerabilities and for any corrective physical improvements.

Holding China Accountable
The interference and aggression coming from the Chinese Communist Party poses a significant threat to our families, businesses, and country. My bill, H.R. 1156, the China Financial Threat Mitigation Act passed in the House and has been sent to the Senate for a vote. This legislation will allow the U.S. to be better protected from Chinese aggression and hold the CCP accountable.

House Republicans have stepped up and passed legislation to fix Biden’s broken border policies.
I am proud to have voted in favor of of H.R. 2, the Secure the Border Act which will restart construction of the border wall, increase hiring of border patrol agents, protect children from human trafficking, and end dangerous catch and release.
The alarms are going off, but Biden is asleep.
It’s past time he wake up and stand up for America.
Memorial Day Service
