Welcome back to the Pfluger Fly-By, a weekly roundup of the work I am doing to represent you and our communities in Congress.
After a few busy weeks in Washington, I was thrilled to be back in Texas-11 this week. I delivered remarks at the Mason Lions Club, presented Llano Junior High School teacher Mrs. Nicole Ritchie with the 2025 Julius Glickman Educational Leadership Award, hosted a community town hall in Eden, participated in a roundtable with the Llano Chamber of Commerce, and more.
My office is also continuing to accept applications for the 2026 Congressional Art Competition, which is an incredible opportunity for students to have their artwork displayed in the U.S. Capitol.
Below, you'll find highlights from the week, including pictures, in-depth updates, and information on how my office can help you with any federal concerns. As always, my team and I are here to serve you. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you need assistance.
Best,
Message on Good Friday
"'He himself bore our sins' in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; 'by his wounds you have been healed.'" - 1 Peter 2:24
On this solemn day, we reflect on the sacrifice our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, made on the cross for our salvation. Good Friday invites us to reflect on the depth of God's love for us, and praise Him for this undeserved gift of grace.
As we step into Easter Weekend and Resurrection Sunday, I pray everyone has a joyous and safe weekend spent with family and loved ones. I encourage you to reflect on the blessings we have received through God and His never-ending love for us. Rest in knowing He is in control of our lives, and hold on to the hope of Jesus in these uncertain times.
Wishing you and your family a blessed Good Friday and a Happy Easter! He is Risen!
Mason Lions Club Meeting
To kick off my week traveling across Texas-11, I stopped by the Mason Lions Club for their monthly meeting. It's always a privilege to hear directly from Texans and connect with the hardworking men and women who make our community the best place to live, work, and raise a family.
Organizations like the Lions Club are the backbone of communities in Texas-11 as they always show up, serve their neighbors, and make a difference every single day. I greatly appreciate all of the work and service of the Mason Lions Club, and thank them for having me this week.
Celebrating Llano Junior High Teacher Mrs. Nicole Ritchie
I was honored to celebrate Llano Junior High School teacher Mrs. Nicole Ritchie by presenting her with the 2025 Julius Glickman Educational Leadership Award from Humanities Texas. Out of more than 900 nominees, Mrs. Ritchie was named one of just fifteen recipients for this prestigious award.
In addition, I also enjoyed delivering remarks to students and staff during the award ceremony. I am extremely grateful to have been included in the celebration and thank Mrs. Ritchie for her dedication to students in Llano. Congratulations again, Mrs. Ritchie!
