Hello, my name is Chris Cantu, and I have no idea how drastically my life is about to change. Initially I dreaded the idea of moving to Ozona, but that's what makes this story so exciting. See, I like to live my life in moments akin to those on the silver screen.
During August, I’ll visit constituents throughout the vast 23rd District of Texas. August is the time that Congress escapes the heat and humidity of Washington for the quiet and comfort of home. However, I'm not happy that
Congress is taking the month of August off. It should stay in town and finish its work.
The sheriff and I have been talking about our local drug problems and some of the problems he has encountered trying to eliminate some of those problems. Sheriff Rodriguez says he has citizens ask him why he has not taken action on a local known drug offender that this citizen knows or that may be one of his neighbors.
When I look back on this summer, it will be remembered as the time I decided to hop on a roller coaster. Before I explain my meaning, let me say that I am not a fan of roller coasters. I have ridden a few, but I don’t like to go

to disguise the way we really smell. I think the two statistics are related
When I asked the Sheriff what was on his mind this morning, he said he is always very concerned about the drug problem in our county. He says he is always amazed that some people think that drugs are a recent problem that
Crockett County has obtained, but it is not a recent development at all.
On Aug. 15, teachers in the Del Valle Independent School District return to the classroom, but most of us will go back earlier. We love our students, and we cannot wait to prepare for their arrival. As we return to our classrooms, we always notice those who do not: experienced teachers who have left, whose loss is a loss for our students
Last week I had the privilege of listening to a very successful local entrepreneur speak about the reasons for his success and the success of his companies. He reminded us of the importance of listening to your customers,
to give them what they want and need with value to them and a profitable relationship for the business. How do you listen to your customers? Below is a brief discussion on how business owners can listen and take action.
There are a little less than 20 legislative days before Congress starts its traditional August recess and members get the opportunity to work from home. I enjoy leaving the politics of Washington behind and doing what I love most – spending time in 23rd District of Texas with constituents, community leaders, friends and family.
