It is important to know your local representatives so you can write letters and complain. Really. Lots of people complain every day, but few take the time to write a letter to actually try to improve things. At least give your representative the opportunity to serve you. It is better to light a candle than curse the darkness.
In case you are not certain who represents you, here they are (as of May 17, 2017). When in doubt who does what, you can always write to all of them.
U.S. Senators represent the entire state. Texas’ current U.S. Senators are Senator John Cornyn and Senator Ted Cruz.
See their websites for current contact information.
