I am SO glad to be back home. We had a great session and I'm excited to give everyone an update on what we did - for the state and for hd98. Just these past few days I've been honored to speak to the Grapevine Chamber, the Southlake Rotary Club, the Bella Vista Estates HOA, Milestone Bible Study group and even gave a legislative update at the Bear Creek Bible Church. We have many more events planned and looking forward to seeing everyone soon.

Cyber threats are rising, and the rapid growth of artificial intelligence is transforming every sector—offering both incredible promise and serious risk.

This week, I traveled to Washington, D.C. to advocate for the landmark laws we passed here in Texas—including the creation of the Texas Cyber Command and our comprehensive AI Framework, both of which I authored.

I had the privilege of:

Speaking at the Cyber Civil Defense Forum, where state and federal leaders are working together to confront today’s digital threats.

Meeting with congressional and senatorial offices, federal policy groups, and other national leaders to share how Texas is setting the pace on cyber and AI regulation.

Listening to the President’s remarks on the White House South Lawn —and even got the chance to shake his hand!

I also had a great time with my friends and former colleagues Congressman Goldman and Secretary Turner.

Cyberattacks in the U.S. rose by more than 80% last year—and AI-enabled threats are growing. We can’t afford to wait. That’s why I’m continuing to work hard every day to ensure Texas—and our nation—stays ahead.

I’ll always fight to keep Texas families, businesses, and infrastructure safe. 🇺🇸

Had an incredible time in DC last week, speaking at the National Press Club, talking AI legislation to the press, getting to see some of my friends and former colleagues, and even getting a chance to say hello to Speaker Johnson. Sine Die doesn’t mean we can take a break from fighting for our constituents! Sponsored and spoke at our first Dementia Symposium on Saturday at the Grapevine Convention Center - and looking forward to several local events coming up!
