Flores released the following statement regarding his first town halls in Texas 17th Congressional District:
With the new Congress comes a new era of transparency openness and accountability. I am honored and humbled to serve the 17th Congressional District of Texas and I pledge to remain committed to common-sense policies that will positively impact Central Texans and all Americans. It is important to me to be able to spend as much time as possible back home with the people I work for so that I may listen to my constituents become better informed on their priorities and ensure that they are heard in Washington. That is why I am holding a series of town hall meetings during the last week of February. This is part of the new Republican Majoritys plan to reform Congress and restore trust so that we can put power back where it belongs: in the hands of the people."
