| Every year the different legislative caucuses get together and honor the hard work for the newly elected members to the Texas House.
This year the awards look like this:
- The Women's Health Caucus named Carole Kent and Armando Walle
- The Mexican American Legislative Caucus selected Joe Moody
- The House Democratic Caucus named Robert Miklos the House Democratic Freshman of the year and Kristi Thibaut the Freshman of the year.
- The House Veterans Caucus chose Chris Turner
- The Legislative Study Group picked Diana Maldonado
All four of our TexBlog PAC endorsed candidates were honored named as an outstanding legislator today. We are proud to see Robert Miklos, Joe Moody, Diana Maldonado and Chris Turner awarded for their hard work. As an inaugural round of endorsements, they have set the bar very high.
In addition the House Democrats gave an award to Kirk England as a "Tenured Freshman of the Year" because this session marked his first session as a Democrat in the House. |
