Rep. Wesley Hunt, representing Texas’s 38th District since 2023, recently shared several updates on social media concerning issues of national security and legislative progress. Born in Houston in 1981, Hunt continues to engage with his constituents through various platforms.
On July 7, 2025, Hunt’s press office reported a significant increase in attacks on ICE and Border Patrol agents. According to Tom Homan, these incidents have surged by 700%. This statistic follows two violent attacks over the weekend and another attack that occurred that morning in McAllen, Texas.
Later that day, at 20:06 UTC, Hunt commemorated the historic event of D-Day. He noted that over 150K Allied troops stormed the beaches of Normandy during World War II’s largest amphibious invasion. He described D-Day as a pivotal moment for freedom and acknowledged the bravery displayed by those involved as a testament to America’s courage.
At 20:17 UTC on July 7th, Rep. Hunt announced the signing of the One Big Beautiful Bill into law by President Trump on July 4th. The legislation includes Rep. Hunt’s commingling policy which allows E&P companies operating on federal land to combine facilities to enhance efficiency. Hunt expressed his appreciation for the Department of Interior’s role in advancing American energy through this initiative (source).
