There are many lessons for a young man to learn on the football field. Thankfully, the values Coach Mayfield instilled in me over the course of the 1965 season stuck with me for life. Special thanks to ECISD for honoring me with a scoreboard shoutout, jersey, and helmet.
United States Congressman, Mike Conaway, was honored for his service at @OdessaPermian’s game with a jersey (his old #72) and helmet. He also did the coin flip. Conaway was a member of MOJO’s first ever state championship team (1965)🏈

The fires in California have already burned over 3.7 million acres of land and have generated more than 91 million metric tons of carbon dioxide, which is about 25% more than California’s annual emissions from fossil fuels. This could be avoided with proper forest management.

I appreciate @ConawayTX11 for his leadership on this legislation which will help us better understand emerging technologies like #blockchain, and for his continued focus to promote public policy that fosters, rather than inhibits, growth of #FinTech in the United States.
The Digital Commodity Exhange Act will provide both responsible oversight and consumer protections, while paving the way for innovation

.@RulesDemocrats just blocked my amendment to restore the bipartisan deal on @USDA funding from even coming to the House Floor for a vote. Our farm and ranch families need our support, but @HouseDemocrats are just thumbing their noses at America's heartland.
