Congressman Moran (R – TX) is the only Texas representative on the House Education and Workforce Committee. He said he wants to represent Texas and bring their issues to the table in D.C. 

Moran added that he wants to build on past legislation that did not make it to the president’s desk.

“We’re going to be talking about some of the failures of the federal government with the FAFSA and what are we going to be doing with the College Cost Reduction Act,” Moran said.

One of the bill’s that will be discussed is the Workforce Innovation and Opportunities Act. The bill failed to pass the Senate this summer.

“What we want to make sure is that we’re investing in the right place, that we have the right accountability, right transparency, so that we are not providing money where there’s no return on that investment,” Moran said.
