2008 Red Ribbon Week Activites Come to an End

Today marks the close of Red Ribbon Week. My thanks and appreciation to the various schools who invited me or who participated in these annual activities. I will continue working on completing our local drug treatment facility and advocating for families fighting to be drug free.

Appropriately enough I have been appointed to the Addiction Studies Program for the States. This is a program directed by Wake Forest National School of Medicine and the National Families in Action Treatment Research Institute. I am being directed to New Orleans immediately after the election. My staff will be available in both our Austin and district offices.

Sadly, I may miss out on some of the post-election spin and theatrical manipulations involving the Speaker's race. The first day of pre-filing of legislation will also commence the day after election day. I am a phone call away.
