Ensuring the safety and security of our families stands at the forefront of my priorities. This commitment has driven my efforts to address both physical and virtual threats head-on. I have worked to enact impactful laws and secure funding to fortify our southern border, safeguarding against cartels, terrorists, and the dangers of drug and human trafficking. But our security landscape extends beyond the physical realm. The digital domain—cybersecurity threats, the importance of privacy, and the emerging challenges posed by AI—demands our vigilant attention. This past week has been particularly rewarding as I've engaged in deep listening, learning, and strategizing to craft legislation that bolsters our collective security. For our families, for our future, I am dedicated to this fight on every front.

Took a small break after the campaign but back at it! Enjoyed speaking to Watermere residents today as they brought up some pressing topics. Tomorrow I’m headed to Austin for our AI advisory council meeting and several other events. See you all soon!

Thank you! With one of the largest victory margins in the state last night, I am incredibly humbled and excited by the opportunity to represent you again in the Texas State House. Throughout my tenure, I've never lost sight of who I serve - you. As your State Representative, I've dedicated myself to protecting innocent life, slashing wasteful spending, and upholding our conservative values. We’ll all need to work together in preparation for the November election.

I want to express my heartfelt thanks to all my supporters and friends who have been with me over the years, offering their time, resources, and prayers. A special thank you to my wife, Elisa, and my family for sacrificing our precious time together in service of this role. Behind every successful public official is an outstanding team, and mine is no exception. They're the backbone of our policy work and support system. A huge shoutout to my Chief of Staff, Katy Aldredge (“the Captain”), who masterfully manages our office and committees, and to Charlie McCaslin, who has delivered first-in-class constituent service. And, of course, to Drew Lawson, the strategy behind our campaign.

This election cycle, I've had the privilege to engage with more voters, knock on more doors, and conduct more meetings than ever before. Your HD98 team is energized and ready to double down on our efforts this year. Thank you for your trust and support. God bless you all!

Proud to have Southlake Kids Interested in Leadership (SKIL) visiting their State Capitol today, where they gained firsthand insights into the intricate workings of state government. This trip not only fosters a deeper understanding of the legislative process, but also underscores the vital role leadership plays in shaping their community and contributing to the broader welfare of the state. By instilling a sense of civic responsibility and encouraging active participation, SKIL empowers young leaders to make a meaningful impact in both their local neighborhoods and the statewide landscape. Thank you to Carroll ISD, the City of Southlake, and the Southlake Chamber of Commerce for sponsoring such an important alliance inspiring our leaders of tomorrow!
