But next week, the Texas SBOE is expected to finalize a new required reading list that will build literacy and provide a historical, cultural, and moral foundation for students.

Texas has more to gain from restoring stability to college sports than perhaps any other state.

Thank you to @SenTedCruz for sponsoring the Protect College Sports Act, which offers a balanced solution to preserve the future of college athletics at all levels.

America's 'sex recession' is more evidence that family formation is collapsing...

Islamist radicalization is a growing threat to American and Texan values, and it's not just a foreign problem. @TPPF is taking action: protecting our institutions, promoting assimilation, and enforcing our laws. Because American values are worth fighting for.

Next week, the Texas SBOE is expected to finalize social studies TEKS that will ensure students have the strongest history education possible.

Students deserve to learn about history in a way that is rigorous, factual, and clear.

Texas Social Studies TEKS are a big deal. Next week, the State Board of Education will determine what Texas students learn about Texas history, America's founding principles, Western Civilization and World History for years to come.

The stakes couldn't be higher.

Just got off with the New York Times wanting my thoughts about the new mandatory reading list in Texas. I kept repeating that I think it’s awesome.

Then she asked me if it concerns me that Muslim students will now have to read the Bible in school. I said that’s awesome too.

43 Texas lawmakers are standing up for ratepayers. A new amicus brief backed by our research warns that the proposed 765-kV STEP transmission plan could cost Texans nearly $100 BILLION over its lifetime, without addressing the need to increase the supply of reliable generation.

80% of Americans, Republicans and Democrats, believe you should have to show an ID to vote.

When there are measures that protect election integrity, Americans are more confident in the process.

The Texas State Board of Education will meet next week for a final battle in establishing new history standards for the next generation of Texas students.

We must preserve our history before it gets rewritten by the radical groups trying to manipulate it.

America was on full display this weekend.

Peace deals were announced via social media by the president, Team USA dominated Paraguay in soccer, and the UFC hosted on the White House lawn.

American patriotism is engulfing the world.
