Representative Randy Weber

One Nation Under God

Watch Rep. Weber's Video Above

On July 2, 1973, in Pearland, Texas, I got down on my knees and rose as a child of the Living King.

April was Faith Month, but our walk with the Lord extends past a calendar or schedule. Every day, we must strive to serve the Lord for His greater plan and purpose. We have the chance every day when we wake up to walk in the Fruits of the Spirit and live out the truth wrapped in His word, bringing it into our homes, workplaces, and communities.

Our Judeo-Christian principles are not something our founders mentioned in passing; they are the very foundation of the greatest nation on Earth. They are the threads and fabric woven through the notes of the national anthem and the stars and stripes of our flag. It has long shaped the trajectory of this country.

To fully embrace these beliefs, we can not ignore the challenges that come with them. Currently, we are living in a society where those values are diminished, slandered, and tested. When they get pushed to the side, it is often easier to fall into convenience and culture, disregarding the truth that has led our Nation for the past 250 years.

We need men and women who will stand firm in their convictions. We need leaders who are not just sustained by power but by guiding principles. I challenge you today to lean into your faith, be bold in what you believe, and get on your knees and pray alongside me for our country.

God bless you and your family. God bless Texas, God bless America.

America’s Next-Gen Tech Bill Clears Committee

Watch Rep. Weber's Opening Statement Above

On Wednesday, the National Quantum Initiative Reauthorization Act (NQIRA) was before the full House Science, Space, and Technology Committee for markup. I was proud to lead this bill, and the bipartisan momentum behind it showed real resolve to keep America leading in the technologies that will shape the future as we push this legislation closer to the finish line.

Quantum technology isn’t some distant, theoretical concept. It is the backbone of the next generation of economic strength, national security, and scientific dominance. From advanced computing and secure communications to space exploration and energy innovation, quantum capabilities will define who leads and who follows in the 21st century.

It’s time to make more strategic and smart investments now. This bill would modernize and reauthorize the original 2018 bill, signed by President Trump, known as the National Quantum Initiative, which was a 10-year plan to elevate the realm of quantum technology research.

If we want to win this competition, and we certainly intend to win, we cannot afford any ground to be ceded to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). With the NQIRA, we are gaining the edge by expanding our workforce, our research, and reinforcing our global leadership.

It secures American leadership by:

Expanding cooperative quantum research efforts with our trusted allies;
Authorizing up to three new National Institute of Standards and Technology centers focused on quantum sensing, measurement, and engineering;
Strengthening National Science Foundation workforce programs, including traineeships and fellowships;
Establishing new quantum testbeds and a multidisciplinary coordination hub;
Supporting the development of quantum foundries and secure domestic supply chains; and
Formally authorizing quantum research and development activities at NASA.

Since the success of Artemis II, we have seen what happens when American ingenuity is combined with access…we win. All of these advancements mean opportunities for the folks right here in Texas' 14th District, including high quality jobs and becoming the hub for the industry and research institutions. We are also able to play a direct role in the future trajectory that will power and protect our nation.

This bill helps ensure the next breakthroughs in quantum science are written by the United States of America, not our foreign adversaries. As we write another proud chapter in our Nation’s storybook, we remind the world that America’s greatest chapters are still ahead of her.

White House Correspondents’ Dinner

What happened at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner this weekend was a stark reminder of just how serious the moment is.

According to reports, the suspect, a 31-year-old teacher from Torrance, California, with a background in engineering and computer science, opened fire outside an event attended by more than 2,500 people, including President Trump, the First Lady, and the Vice President. By the grace of GOD and the swift action of the United States Secret Service and law enforcement, a potential tragedy was stopped in seconds.

Those men and women did exactly what they are trained to do. They ran toward danger, secured the scene, and protected every life in that room. Their courage and professionalism made all the difference.

But we cannot just move on without asking the harder questions.

We are living in a time where political rhetoric has become more heated, more personal, and more violent. That is not just talk. It has consequences. When public figures, media voices, and cultural influencers use language that demeans or dehumanizes their opponents, it raises the temperature in ways that can lead to real-world harm.

History gives us important perspective. When President Ronald Reagan was shot in 1981, it was treated as a national trauma that brought the country together. Today, President Trump has faced three attempted assassinations in less than three years, and each time it has done nothing but further divide Americans. That is not normal, and it should concern every American regardless of political party.

I thank the heroes who stepped up and prevented tragedy. I recognize that rhetoric in this country has real consequences. And I will continue taking the necessary steps to ensure the safety and security of the American people as we move forward.

That is the responsibility before Congress today, tomorrow, and always.
