For Texans in the 2nd District, flooding is fresh on our minds and we deserve leaders in Congress who are dedicated to finding the right policy solutions and implementing them quickly. Although Hurricane Harvey is in the rearview for many Americans, those of us in Houston know recovery is far from over. I’m dedicated to getting TX-02 the disaster relief funding it deserves.

As a member of the Homeland Security Committee, I will make it my focus to ensure that the Federal Emergency Management Agency is able to rapidly deliver help to those in need. We must continue to utilize public-private partnerships to ensure our community is back and running at full capacity. I’m committed to our communities making a full recovery and more importantly, better preparing us for future storms.
