Great end to the week! After 5 committee hearings, 2 bills passed out of the House, and dozens of visitors from the Valley, Friday ended with my first bill passed this session!

SB 1514, the companion to my HB 4279, updates the Business Organizations Code to give Texas companies an advantage over those based out of state. On to the Governor!

This week I toured the National Butterfly Center. Watch this video to learn about Spike, the center's tortoise, and his incredible story.<br /><br />Today, you can donate to the National Butterfly Center to help in their efforts via Facebook or at nationalbutterflycenter.org.<br /><br />In late March, the resident 17-year-old African Spurred Tortoise, was injured after a fire burned down his home. The Mission Fire Department and a U.S. Customs and Border Protection medic responded to the fire and assisted the center in extinguishing it. He was severely hurt, and they did not know if he was going to make it. He has since then had a remarkable recovery. Due to treatments and COVID-19, the center has lost a significant amount of revenue.

Earlier this session, I sat down with McAllen Cable News to discuss the ongoing legislative session, the budget process, and my legislative priorities. Since our interview, I was appointed to the Conference Committee--- a key role in which I have the opportunity, alongside my House & Senate colleagues, to decide the final Biennium budget. Thank you MCN for allowing me to share my experience and insight with the community.
