Join us for great food\, valuable connections\, and an engaging program designed just for YOU. 🌟\n \nCome hear how our HEALTHCARE PRIORITIES faired in the last Legislative Session. \n  \nAs usual\, NABIP-TX lobbyists\, Meroney Public Affairs\, were hard at work protecting our interest at the Texas Capitol. They will now be coming out to our Chapter to present an updated CE covering a deep dive into the healthcare related legislation that passed\, failed and some that may come back next session. 1 Hour CE – Pending \n \n  \nAs a special guest we will have State Represenative\, David Lowe  \n    \nState Representative David Lowe proudly serves the people of Texas House District 91\, bringing a lifetime of dedication to service\, leadership\, and conservative values. Born and raised in Dallas County\, he was adopted at a young age and graduated high school before enlisting in the United States Army. Serving as a Military Policeman\, Representative Lowe completed four overseas tours\, including two combat deployments to Afghanistan\, before retiring from the Army in 2015. Following his military service\, he continued his commitment to public safety by pursuing a career in law enforcement\, working in both adult and juvenile detention facilities after graduating from the Texas Peace Officer’s Academy in 2018. \nCommitted to conservative principles\, Representative Lowe became actively involved in Republican politics\, beginning as a volunteer for the Dallas County Republican Party in 2016. His dedication to advancing the party’s mission earned him the Volunteer of the Year award in 2017. In 2020\, he was appointed as the North Texas Regional Director for the Republican Party of Texas\, overseeing grassroots efforts and party operations across the region. He also served as a precinct chair in both Dallas and Tarrant counties\, demonstrating a strong commitment to engaging voters and strengthening the conservative movement. Academically\, Representative Lowe earned a bachelor’s degree from American Military University in 2018\, furthering his expertise in policy\, leadership\, and governance. \nNow serving in the Texas House of Representatives\, Representative Lowe is focused on delivering real solutions for Texans. His legislative priorities include improving mental health services\, reforming the juvenile justice system\, advancing education reform\, ensuring fiscal responsibility\, and working toward the long-term elimination of property taxes. As a devoted husband and father of two\, he understands the importance of creating a prosperous future for Texas families. He and his family reside in North Richland Hills\, where he remains deeply connected to the values and concerns of the district.
