Residents of the 24th Congressional District of Texas deserve another choice. We have had the same Republican representative since 2005. And in all that time, he has never served as the chairman of any committee. District 24 is full of smart, dynamic people with great ideas. We need a representative who will bring those ideas to the table in Washington. If you will elect me to the position, I will do the job, and listen to the people of the district. You can count on attending regular Town Hall meetings when I’m your representative!
Priority 1 of Congress is to support and defend the Constitution of the United States. Somehow, it seems that our representative thinks his top priorities are:

The 116th Congress hasn't even been sworn in yet, and there's still no resolution in sight to one North Carolina race tainted by election fraud. But already, the 2020 battle for the House is shaping up to be highly competitive.I'm feeling SO inspired! Tonight I attended the Dallas Peace & Justice Center's annual Peacemaker Awards Banquet.

There's a disconnect here. On Friday, we got the government's dire report on climate change. Today we hear that GM is closing 5 plants...the ones that produce smaller cars. No one is buying those, so GM will focus on SUV's and trucks.
So...when gas prices go up, people buy smaller cars. Now that gas prices are down, we buy bigger vehicles.
When will we realize that climate change is more than a pocketbook issue and act accordingly?

There is talk lately about whether ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) should be abolished. In my opinion, that debate is a distraction.

Therefore, I believe that it is the policies that should be changed, whether or not …

This is not presented as a comprehensive tax package, but rather as points to be considered in the process. As a CPA, I would love to be at the table for those discussions as the District 24 representative. 1. Income is income. There should …
