Last night, I joined my @HouseGOP colleagues in honoring America's fallen law enforcement heroes. Attacks on law enforcement must stop!

One year ago, 8 lives were taken from us in a horrific act of gun violence in Allen. Despite the deep pain I feel alongside every Texan, I believe it doesn’t have to be this way. We can pass common sense solutions to save lives. Watch my House floor speech from last year. https://t.co/3uQSnF4U1B
