Representative Backs Up Sabine-Neches Dredging
U.S. Representative Brian Babin (TX-36) announced yesterday his selection to several key subcommittees that are critically important to the 36th District of Texas.
On the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, Babin will serve on the Highways and Transit Subcommittee; the Railroads, Pipelines, and Hazardous Materials Subcommittee; and the Water Resources and Environment Subcommittee.
“As a member of the subcommittee with direct jurisdiction over our waterways, I will be a leading voice for our four local ports and the dredging of the Sabine-Neches Waterway,” said Babin.
“Congressman Babin will provide our committee with fresh insight and leadership into the transportation and waterway needs of East Texas,” said Chairman Bill Shuster.
On the House Science, Space and Technology Committee, Babin will serve on the Space Subcommittee and the Science Subcommittee.
