Happy American Independence Day


I send my greetings to you and your family for this holiday weekend and hope you celebrate safely. American Independence Day is when we can come together as a country and celebrate everything that makes us great. Let us pay homage to our founding fathers who bravely carved out the constitution to liberate Americans from tyranny. After 234 years, that constitution still preserves our rights as U.S. citizens, and gives you a voice in your government.

After embracing U.S. citizenship for most of my adult life, I see that its leaders must work to preserve democracy. This is why I choose to run for a seat in the Texas House of Representatives. I often think how lucky my three children are for being born as U.S. citizens. The opportunities ahead of them are much greater here than anywhere else. With your vote, I will work hard to keep the American dream alive here in Texas for all our children.

Please celebrate safely this 4th of July. As a reminder, fireworks are not approved to be fired from within city limits. But there is an excellent choice of certified fireworks displays for your family listed below.
