I was born and raised in a small farming community, so I know just how vital the agriculture industry is to our state and local economies. This is especially true in Texas’ 13th Congressional District which accounts for 35% of Texas’ agriculture sales, making it the state’s top-rated agriculture district, and the sixth overall agriculture district in the United States. I will be a proud and tireless advocate for our great farmers and ranchers. Ensuring food security and successful agriculture production is not only critical to our district, but also to the United States and the rest of the world. |
