Dear Brett,
Welcome back to my West Texas Wrap-Up. Please remember to follow me on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube for regular updates on how I am serving the people of West Texas!
Exposing Kamala Harris’ Pro-Criminal, Anti Law Enforcement Record
This week, I introduced H.Res.1457, a resolution exposing Vice President Kamala Harris for her history of championing anti law enforcement policies and, as a result, encouraging lawlessness across the country.
Kamala Harris is working tirelessly to reinvent herself as a mainstream moderate, but her record reveals she’s proudly aligned with the radical Left with a clear history of empowering criminals and vilifying our law enforcement.
This is the same person who opened our southern border for criminals to flood our communities, praised defunding the police in Los Angeles, advocated for decriminalizing illegal immigration, compared ICE agents to the Ku Klux Klan, promoted the Minnesota Freedom Fund to bail out violent rioters, and authored legislation that would end cash bail and eliminate mandatory minimum sentencing.
I introduced this legislation to remind the American people that behind the Democrats’ political makeover, Kamala Harris’ record of lawlessness is as radical as it gets.

Remembering 9/11
Recently, we observed the 23rd anniversary of the September 11th terrorist attacks.
I was working in the White House on 9/11 and will never forget that fateful day.
Despite the grievous attack and tragic loss, we witnessed incredible courage and heroism followed by inspiring acts of faith, patriotism, and national unity.
Our prayers continue for the families of the victims of 9/11 and our servicemembers who sacrificed their lives for our safety and security in the battles that followed. Let us never forget!

Second Assassination Attempt on President Trump
Last weekend, President Trump avoided yet another assignation attempt while golfing in Florida.
While the Left continues to make ridiculous and caustic claims about Donald Trump being a threat to Democracy, he is absolutely a threat to their radical plans to fundamentally transform our country.
No one has endured more political persecution in modern history - if ever.
First, it was the Russia-collusion hoax, then the first partisan impeachment in our history, then the first impeachment of a non-sitting president, then the armed raid on Mar-a-Lago, countless indictments, and, finally, two assassination attempts.
And he just keeps on fighting for the country and people he loves.
Thankfully, you are not living in Castro’s Cuba or Chavez’ Venezuela…YET!
Happy Birthday Air Force!
This week, we celebrated 77 years of the United States Air Force and their dedication to serving our great nation.
For nearly eight decades, the USAF has secured freedom through American air defense and superiority around the world.
I’m especially proud to represent our brave airmen and airwomen at Dyess Air Force Base, where we’re excited to welcome the new B-1 Raider to the Big Country very soon.
May we continue to recognize and thank those brave heroes who defend our skies to preserve liberty here at home.
Champion for Agriculture
Before returning to Washington, I enjoyed speaking with farmers and other ag stakeholders at the Southwest Council of Agribusiness Farm Bill Summit in Lubbock.
Rural America has been disproportionately hit by the Biden-Harris inflation tax affecting everything from seed and fertilizer prices to equipment and shipping costs.
We need a Farm Bill that provides a responsible safety net for our producers, much-needed welfare reform, and a safe, stable and abundant food supply.
After speaking at the summit, I was proud to accept the Wheat Advocate award from the National Association of Wheat Growers.
Constitution Day
237 years ago, thirty-nine brave patriots signed the greatest governing document in the history of the world, creating a constitutional republic called the United States of America.
The biggest threats to our republic are not existential. They are the rot within - the unsustainable spending and debt, weaponization of our government, moral and spiritual decline, and loss of our fundamental rights and freedoms.
Remember, it’s every American’s responsibility to preserve our republic and the blessings of liberty, security, and prosperity for generations to come.
