A candidate has emerged who will attempt to oust Joe Straus as Texas House Speaker. His name is Phil King. Representative King is from District 61 in Weatherford and currently serves as a Colonel in the Texas State Guard. He should be sympathetic to veterans concerns. Please contact him to query him on his position on a Monuments Protection Act and see if he will spearhead the effort. The Texas House web site has all his contact information where he can be called, written or sent an e-mail. We need to become active in the political process to secure our rights! http://www.house.state.tx.us/members/member-page/?district=61
