This month, we are proud to honor Bill Morris.


** Welcome to the October edition of The Moran Minuteman.
------------------------------------------------------------

This monthly newsletter is our way of recognizing extraordinary efforts in Texas Congressional District 1 and providing an inside look into what happens behind the scenes in the life of a Congressman.
This month, I am especially thankful for East Texans. With all the turmoil in the world and Washington, D.C., I am grateful to return to the solid foundation of faith, family, and freedom that is alive and well in the First District of Texas.

Many people have reached out over the last few weeks as Congress has been engaged in a chaotic environment that is all too often driven by personal ambition instead of good, sound, conservative policymaking. You have let me know you are praying for me, our nation, and Israel. Know that I feel your prayers and that serving as your Congressman is the honor of a lifetime.


** Congratulations to our October Minuteman -
------------------------------------------------------------

When I think of East Texans, I think of the Minutemen of the Revolutionary War ([link removed]) . Loyal to country and community, dependable, selfless, and ready at a moment's notice, the Minutemen were American heroes who helped turn the tide of the Revolutionary War. Today's East Texans reflect those traits. You are patriotic, dependable, and deeply committed to making our communities better.

Each month, I will recognize an East Texan who has gone above and beyond in serving our region - someone who epitomizes the identity of a Minuteman. In addition to recognition in the monthly newsletter, we will send the person a Moran Minuteman t-shirt.

This month's Minuteman, Bill Morris, is the Panola County Veterans Service Officer, but his work goes far beyond his job at the county office. An Army veteran, Bill started the Panola County Veterans Relief Fund for all veterans in Panola County. This fund has helped replace roofs, keep on the utilities, and provide food, transportation, and a myriad of other needed services for veterans.

Additionally, Bill hosts a Freedom Celebration every 4th of July weekend, including a clay shoot, to benefit veterans. Bill is the curator of the Military Museum in Carthage, where he has worked diligently to add more pieces to it. He gives free tours to anyone, but he especially enjoys providing tours to schoolchildren so he can educate them on the sacrifices made by members of the armed forces.

Thank you, Bill, for your dedication to our community, state, and nation. It is an honor to recognize you as the October 2023 Minuteman.

Do you know an East Texan who would be a great next recipient? Please submit their name here ([link removed]) .

Our Moran Minuteman team will also be out and about serving at community events and in disaster relief efforts. Look for us, and we’ll toss you a t-shirt!

** Delivering on Promises
------------------------------------------------------------

When I ran for Congress, I recognized the unique, strong bond that America shares with Israel and promised to do my part to strengthen our partnership and make known our unwavering support for Israel's right to defend itself. Following the deadly Hamas attack against Israel, I wrote an op-ed ([link removed]) for the Dallas Morning News. In it, I stated, "We must stand firmly with Israel, sharing intelligence and resources, providing military equipment and support to the Israeli army, or using our military muscle directly against those responsible."

I am continuing to pray for Israel and its people and am doing everything in my power as the Congressman from the First District of Texas and as a member of the Foreign Affairs Committee to ensure that Israel is equipped to respond to these heinous attacks.
Sincerely,
Nathaniel Moran
Congressman, First District of Texas
