I would like to welcome you to my Web site! I appreciate you taking the time to visit, read and learn about what's going on in and around the state capitol in Austin. With the 80th Texas Legislative Session finally over, we are now looking ahead to the 81st. During the interim, the House Committees will be studying a number of important issues to come up with recommendations as we prepare for legislation next session.
Whether the Texas Legislature is in session or attending to interim duties, it is imperative for us, as citizens of this state, to monitor issues important to us and to communicate our position with our elected officials. The Internet offers citizens an easy way to learn about and exchange ideas.
At home, at work, and in our schools, our lives are made easier when information posted on the Internet is available at the click of a mouse. I envision this Web site serving as a tool to deliver news and information to Texans. As Speaker of the Texas House of Representatives, I serve as the State Representative for District 82 and as Speaker to the 149 House members and all Texans. I am elated to offer this site to keep citizens from Dallas to Laredo and El Paso to Beaumont up-to-date on the issues the state legislature debates.
Please contact me if you have additional questions or would like more information about a point you see posted on the site. I hope you enjoy searching this Web site and I look forward to hearing from you.
