The Endangered Species Act was designed to preserve biodiversity, not enrich trial lawyers and political activists.
I am constantly reminded that as Texans, we are exceptional people.
President Obama and Hillary Clinton want government to run your health care. My dad believes that you and your doctor should decide your health care.
Anything to make a difference and to seek consensus on an issue is something that I feel strongly about.
No man or woman of our armed forces or law enforcement will pass from this world unnoticed. They will not be forgotten. They will not just fade away.
I stood by Ted Cruz in 2012. I endorsed President Trump in 2016.
I've worked on a variety of campaigns and fought for a variety of conservative causes for a long time. But it wasn't until I came back from my military service that I realized I needed to devote myself to others.
Politics, I love. It's a noble profession.
State ownership of flood control efforts will not completely eliminate the problem but can substantially reduce it.
On social questions, national defense, economic issues, I'm a strong conservative.
There must be an authority at the state level to coordinate flood mitigation projects in upstream watersheds. Additionally, this state entity could bring together multiple stakeholders to benefit all communities in the region.
It is difficult to conduct flood mitigation at the federal level because of the bureaucracy and inconsistent funding. Texans are better able to lead this effort at the state level rather than rely on the federal government.
Texas has a pressing need for a single governmental body to provide overall flood control management for the watersheds affecting major population areas and guide state and local flood control policy.
