Two years ago on October 7, 2023, Hamas unleashed pure evil on innocent men, women, and children. It was the deadliest attack on the Jewish people since the Holocaust.

Now, President Donald J. Trump went to the table and brokered a HISTORIC peace deal between Israel and Hamas. This is peace through strength in real time.

Under Phase One of the deal, a ceasefire is underway, and the remaining hostages are expected to be released within the next 72 hours. It’s the first real progress we’ve seen since that horrific October day.

This breakthrough is part of President Trump’s 20-Point Peace Plan — a bold, detailed roadmap for lasting stability in the Middle East. The plan focuses on:

• Ending and disarming Hamas of their arms and governance;
• Rebuilding Gaza under regional oversight;
• And establishing a dialogue between Israel and the Palestinians with the goal of agreeing on a political horizon for peaceful and prosperous coexistence.

In just the last eight months, this leadership from the Trump Administration has helped deliver peace deals between Azerbaijan and Armenia, Cambodia and Thailand, Rwanda and the DRC, India and Pakistan, Israel and Iran, and Egypt and Ethiopia.

And the American people are taking notice. This Monday, a poll showed 56% of Americans support President Trump’s peace plan. They know what strength looks like. They know the results when they see them.

As we mark this path toward peace, may we remember the victims, pray for the hostages still waiting to come home, and stand shoulder to shoulder with our brothers and sisters in Israel!

For the first time in OVER FIVE DECADES, illegal crossings along our southern border have fallen to their lowest level since 1970.

And no. That didn’t just happen out of thin air.

Under President Donald J. Trump, Border Patrol recorded roughly 238,000 apprehensions this fiscal year. This is down from more than 2.2 MILLION under the Biden administration. That’s nearly a 90% drop in just one year. 

How? We ended catch-and-release. We reinstated Remain in Mexico. We enforced the law. The very policies Texans have begged Washington to do for years.

Here at home, our state has been on the front lines of the border fight. From the Gulf Coast to El Paso, Texas law enforcement has carried the load, built the barriers, and stood in the gap when Washington looked the other way.

No more open-border policies. No more excuses. Just results.

Texans are safer. America is stronger. And our border is finally being secured the way it should’ve been all along.

We’re not done yet. We’re going to finish the wall, fix our border system, and make sure EVERY INCH of America’s border is protected.

A nation without borders isn’t a nation at all.

Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer said this week that “every day gets better for us”—referring to the ongoing government shutdown that’s now stretched into its 10th day. While Democrats celebrate, millions of Americans are feeling the strain.

Team Weber hit the ground running across TX-14 this week by honoring service, meeting with local leaders, and celebrating the communities that keep Texas strong.

Rep. Weber was able to join Governor Greg Abbott and community leaders at the Golden Triangle Republican Women’s luncheon, where the Governor highlighted Texas’ unmatched progress from expanding school choice and investing in grid reliability to strengthening border security and disaster response.

Meanwhile, at the Bay Area Houston Economic Partnership’s Political Protocol Committee, our office provided updates on Rep. Weber’s leadership to advance the Coastal Spine project by requesting $45 million in FY27 funding to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and on the local impacts of the ongoing federal shutdown on NASA’s Johnson Space Center.

Even during a government shutdown, Team Weber continues to stay plugged in, fighting for Southeast Texas priorities and the people.
