Fighting Against Federal Overregulation of Texas Waters

You may remember this last spring when the EPA proposed a rule to expand their jurisdiction under the Clean Water Act of 1972. The law lets them regulate “navigable waters of the United States,” but their proposed rule would expand that to include even runoff ditches and stock ponds on our private property. And for us in Texas, that means severe limits on farming, ranching, and construction. That means more top-down federal regulation that ignores local efforts.

UnFair: Exposing the IRS Movie Review

When I first saw the advertisement for Unfair: Exposing the IRS, I was interested, but unsure of the meaning. I thought I knew some of the bad things about the IRS, but was I ever in for a surprise. The words, “Abuse by the IRS”, caused me to remember having been harassed by the IRS personally; and after attending the movie here in Dallas, I was astounded.

Here we live in America, the home of the free and the brave, and this rogue agency, with its huge budget and unlimited resources is deliberately punishing people,

Senator Donna Campbell Texas SD-25

Issues: 

In case you were not aware, Senator Donna Campbell, a double board certified physician in emergency room care and ophthalmology, has an opponent in the November election. He is Daniel Boone, the perpetual liberal whose only purpose is to occupy the ‘Democrat’ space on the ballot. He is promoting himself as a 'moderate' which of course he is not. So while Boone’s only reason is to have someone, anyone running for the Democrats, Senator Campbell has been extremely busy working for the people in Texas Senate District 25.

She takes our Constitution seriously and has been courageous in dealing with situations as the border crisis and the Texas budget. Senator Campbell is vice chair of the Nominations Committee and sits on several committees which include Education, Jurisprudence, Transportation, and Veteran Affairs & Military Installations. She is also part of the Texas Sunset Commission

Support for Travel Ban to Protect American Lives

Issues: 

This recent outbreak of Ebola has been heartbreaking. There’s no question about that. It’s infected more than 8,800 patients, and taken more than 4,400 lives in West Africa. Here in Texas, we’ve seen firsthand how quickly the virus spreads and how devastating it can be.

The Obama Administration has been frustratingly slow to respond. What we need is immediate action and real leadership, to stop Ebola’s global impact, and to eliminate the threat here in America. Read more about Support for Travel Ban to Protect American Lives

The Ethics of Quarantine

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.–That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed . . .”

Yes, I’m using the Declaration of Independence to explain the ethics of quarantine. In fact, I suggest that the inalienable rights to life, liberty and “the pursuit of happiness” actually requires that a “just government” quarantine people
