Welcome

As your state representative, my job is to be your voice in Austin.

We share West Texas values in education, agriculture, water solutions, tax reform and issues that help make Texas a good place to work and live.

My parents instilled in me the belief that each generation has an obligation to the next generation. We all want Texas to be a better place for families, for students and teachers, for property owners, for farmers and ranchers, for business people, for every citizen.

You elected me to stand up for you in Austin and I pledge to continue to do so.

I have served on the House Committee on Appropriations in every session since you sent me to Austin in 2006. I am chairman of the Subcommittee on Natural Resources, Business & Economic Development and Regulatory Agencies and vice-chairman of the House Committee on Transportation.

I believe in a common sense, conservative approach to problem solving and in working with others to achieve common goals.
