What a day at Harlingen Market Days! 🎉 It was packed, and perfect weather for it. I caught up with favorites like Gourmet Pecan, grabbed a must-have pupusa, and found some awesome new vendors!

This weekend in Brownsville, I had the distinct privilege of presenting Stacy Puente with a Texas Flag in recognition of her outstanding service. 🇨🇱

Stacy has served as a Combative Sports Inspector with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TLDR) for more than 16 years, upholding safety, fairness, and integrity in combative sports across Texas. For over a decade, she was the only female inspector representing South Texas, breaking barriers and setting a strong example of leadership and professionalism.

Her dedication and hard work have earned the respect of athletes, promoters, and officials statewide. It was truly an honor to recognize Stacy tonight for her commitment to the State of Texas.

Had an amazing time at the City of Primera’s WinterFest! ❄️ I look forward to this event every year, but this year the City truly outdid themselves. They brought snow to Primera and even had live dinosaurs, such a fun experience for the kids and families!

The food and entertainment were great, the band was amazing, and the local Sparks dance team was absolutely fantastic. It was wonderful seeing so many families from the area come out and enjoy the night, including Commissioner Gus Ruiz and our City Council.

The event was held in front of the new City Hall building, which is almost complete and looks absolutely beautiful. Huge thanks to everyone who helped make WinterFest such a special night for our community! 🎄✨

Earlier this week, I had the opportunity to attend the Greater Chamber of Harlingen State of the County for Cameron County, and it was a meaningful look at the progress shaping our region. Hearing firsthand about the initiatives underway made it clear how much collaboration and hard work is driving results across the county.

A special thanks to Manny Vela for coming out of retirement to moderate the discussion, his insight and experience added tremendous value to the conversation. A big thanks to our County Judge and County Commissioners for their leadership and dedication throughout the year in bringing these important projects to fruition.

With so much momentum and so many impactful efforts ahead, Cameron County’s future is bright, and it’s encouraging to see such a strong commitment to growth, opportunity, and quality of life for our communities.

It was truly an honor to speak at the final 1 Million Cups Wednesday at eBridge in Brownsville. Huge thanks to the UTRGV team and everyone involved for an incredible year—culminating in 4,000 cups of coffee shared through the program in 2025. ☕
Looking forward to the continued excellence of 1 Million Cups and the inspiring entrepreneurs, business leaders, and speakers it brings to our community.
