Congressman Crenshaw here,

This week was a busy one! On Thursday, we held our 2nd Annual Healthcare Innovation Summit in Houston. Over 200 Texans signed up to attend and hear from 7 local healthcare innovators. It was an incredible event. I also spoke with Fox News Radio about the Republican approach to address climate change through carbon capture.

As a reminder to Texans in the Second District, please reach out to my offices if you have a concern, want to hear what we’re working on in Congress, or are having trouble with a federal agency. I have a full team in Texas and in the nation's capital ready to assist you. Be sure to stay up to date by following me on Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube. For a behind-the-scenes look, follow my staff's official Instagram account.

Now, let's catch up.

HEALTHCARE INNOVATION SUMMIT

This week we held our 2nd Annual Healthcare Innovation Summit! It was a huge success. We had over 200 people attend a really incredible exposition of Texas healthcare pioneers. I gave awards to my mom’s cancer doctor, Dr. Peter Ravdin, and immunology pioneer Dr. Jim Allison, who has saved countless lives with his breakthroughs.

We heard from local Houstonians like Dr. Donna Chang, who is breaking new limits using stem cells, and young entrepreneurs like Jessica Traver who have created innovative spinal tap devices. We heard how Amir Jafri has lowered costs in immunotherapy, and how Texas A&M Director of Biosciences, Dr. Ken Ramos, is working on precision medicine and “physicianeers.” We also heard from the Director of Texas Medical Innovation Center, Tom Luby, who oversees amazing infrastructure that helps facilitate the innovation we celebrated on Thursday. It was a great day highlighting some great Texans. Watch the recap here!

NEW PODCAST EPISODE

This week we're highlighting a new podcast episode Nuclear Energy, Chernobyl, and the Simpsons, with Maria Korsnick. Maria Korsnick is the President and CEO of the Nuclear Energy Institute. Clean energy is currently one of our most important conversations on Capitol Hill. Maria joined me to debunk some of the myths about nuclear energy, that there really is *no* green slime in nuclear plants, and why nuclear needs to be a critical piece of our clean energy plans.

LISTEN: FOX NEWS RADIO INTERVIEW

I joined Fox News Radio recently to discuss a sensible, science-based approach to address climate change: promoting existing innovation like carbon capture that we can market to the world to tackle GLOBAL emissions. That's what my New Energy Frontier is all about. Listen to the interview here!
