Today, I’m especially grateful for my dad, who served our country, and for the honor and privilege of having served in the United States Navy.
Military service leaves a lasting impact, not only on those who wear the uniform, but also on the families who stand beside them and share in the sacrifices that come with serving our nation.
This Veterans Day, I’m reflecting on the courage, dedication, and sacrifices of all who have answered the call to serve. To my fellow veterans and the families who have supported them along the way, thank you for your service, your strength, and your unwavering commitment to our country. We are forever grateful.

Forging history.
Dean Senfronia Thompson is the daughter of a maid and the granddaughter of a sharecropper. She grew up paying a poll tax for the right to vote.
She became a public school teacher, and then a Houston attorney. She was first elected to the Texas House in 1972, and today she is the Dean of the House and the longest-serving woman and African American legislator in Texas history.
Over the years, she has written landmark legislation that first gave Texans spousal support after divorce, toughened penalties for hate crimes, banned racial profiling, increased the minimum wage, and created drug courts so people get treatment and a second chance. She is a proven leader who puts people over party. That is why we call her “the conscience of the House.”
Madam Speaker, we're ready to work.

Senfronia Thompson will be an excellent Speaker because she personifies the Texas House at its best: A trusted leader who will work with anyone to do what’s right for Texas. I am grateful for her friendship and look forward to her historic leadership. #txlege

Been on the phone all morning, looked at all the models, and one thing is for sure in Texas:
Nobody knows what’s about to happen.
