Thank you for your work and leadership, Chairman Harris! We are honored to recognize you after a historic legislative session for the future of water in !

I was honored to be recognized by the American Council of Engineering Companies (ACEC Texas) as a Champion of Infrastructure for the 89th Legislature.

As Chairman of the House Natural Resources Committee, I’ve made it a priority to secure long-term, reliable investments in Texas water and flood infrastructure. Passing a constitutional amendment to invest $1 billion per year for the next 20 years was a big step toward protecting our communities and supporting continued growth across our state.

I appreciate ACEC Texas for this recognition and for the important work they do to keep Texas moving forward.

Proud to continue fighting for long-term, responsible investments that keep Texas moving forward.
