Texas State Representative James White has filed HB 704 in an effort to protect Texas from the Obama administration’s takeover of the public schools through Common Core Standards. Please express your appreciation to Rep. White for his efforts and then contact Texas Legislators and ask them to vote for HB 704.
Below is the text of HB 704 from Texas Legislature Online:
The late, great Andrew Breitbart once described comedian Evan Sayet’s 2007 speech at the Heritage Foundation as “one of the five most important conservative speeches ever given”. Five years later that speech (How Modern Liberal’s Think) continues to receive fresh views. Most recently Sayet has taken the meat of that speech and developed and extended the premise into his first book: The Kindergarden of Eden: How the Modern Liberal Thinks.
During the 2011 Legislature, the Texas House of Representatives passed a bill out of committee that would allow licensed concealed carry permit holders the option of carrying a firearm open or concealed. The bill did not make it to the floor for a vote of the entire House. In this session, as the debate over gun control rages on at the federal level, Representative George Lavender (R-Texarkana) and Representative Chris Paddie (R-Marshall) have introduced HB 700 to bring the debate forward again. This bill will certainly gather a lot of attention as it works its way through the 2013 Legislature.
I want to welcome and thank all Texans who have made the trip to Washington to make their voices heard. We’ve taken important steps in recent years to defend life, including passage of the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act and the Unborn Victims of Violence Act. I believe that all life should be treated with dignity and respect, and I am committed to doing all I can to protect innocent life. Read more about 2013 March For Life
Forty years after the Supreme Court ruled on Roe vs. Wade, activists on both sides of the debate are still fighting for their cause. For those who are staunchly pro-life, activism includes participating in marches, debate training, and educating others about what it means to be pro-life. On college campuses pro-life groups such as the University of North Texas College Republicans host guest speakers like Dianne Edmondson,
Last week, the Texas Federation of Republican Women (TFRW) took another bold step showing that the Texas Republicans want to lead the way on reasonable and sensible immigration reform laws. The time has come for our nation to address this problem and to do so in a way that respects the rule of law and addresses immigration as a means of economic growth and prosperity for our state and nation. The resolution, overwhelmingly passed by the members of the TFRW board, calls for implementation of a guest worker program similar in nature to "The Texas Solution" platform of the Republican Party of Texas.

As your Representative, I began working on the issue of sexual assault in the military in 2007 when we learned of the tragic story of Lance Corporal Maria Lauterbach (USMC). Maria was a young woman from southwest Ohio who was serving her country honorably when she was allegedly sexually assaulted by a senior enlisted servicemember. Eight months later, she and her unborn child were murdered by that accused servicemember.

Today, I supported a bill that requires the Senate to pass a budget or forfeit their pay. The No Budget, No Pay Act (H.R. 325) passed the House of Representatives by a vote of 285-144. An overwhelming majority of Texas Republicans supported the measure.
Americans across the nation set budgets for their family’s expenses. They accomplish every single day a task that the Senate has neglected for four years. A fundamental responsibility of the government is to set budgets and stick to them.
After careful consideration, I chose not to raise our country’s debt limit and voted against increasing the debt ceiling. I don’t believe it is fair to our hardworking taxpayers to give the President a blank check to spend as he sees fit.
H.R. 325 will raise the debt ceiling until May 19, 2013, without setting any caps on how much the Administration can borrow. Although I opposed giving the President four months to spend unlimited taxpayer dollars without requiring significant spending cuts, I was supportive of other aspects of the legislation.
