El Paso is home to Fort Bliss Army Base, a major power projection site and strategic asset for our national defense. For many soldiers, we are the last stop before they deploy and the first to welcome them home when they return.
As a member of the House Armed Services Committee, the Subcommittee on Readiness, and the Subcommittee on Military Personnel, servicemembers are always top of mind. I’m proud of the work I’ve accomplished throughout my time in Congress, including securing millions in funds for infrastructure upgrades at Fort Bliss, including for housing, voting for pay raises for our troops, protecting Castner Range forever in collaboration with the Army, and so much more.
