Legislative Update
Press release from Tony Gonzales
02-14-25
This week, I voted in favor of H.R. 35, which increases federal penalties on anyone who evades law enforcement and engages in a vehicle pursuit.
For too long, high-speed car chases, particularly with human smugglers, have endangered our communities and our law enforcement officers. I’m committed to protecting our citizens and holding these criminals accountable.
Also this week, I voted on legislation (HR 736) that reduces red tape for small businesses by reducing excessive government paperwork.
Government needs to let small businesses do what they do best: focus on their bottom lines, not on bureaucracy. I will always promote and support policies that protect small business owners!
Lastly, I was proud to vote on legislation (HR 224) that helps our veterans maintain access to proper housing by ensuring that disabled vets aren’t penalized by housing programs for receiving disability compensation.
We owe our veterans a tremendous debt of gratitude. I will always champion our veterans and fight to reduce any and all bureaucratic red tape so they can get the support they deserve.
Over the next two years, we have many priorities to accomplish. I look forward to staying in touch as we work to make our country safer and more prosperous!
God Bless,
Tony Gonzales
