More Info: Rick Noreiga for Texas |
At a time when we are facing increasingly serious foreign policy and national security challenges, while needing to repair this Administration's assault on the Constitution, Rick's leadership and knowledge will be of paramount importance.
Rick serves as a State Representative from Houston and a Lieutenant Colonel in the Texas National Guard who served a tour of duty in Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan. He joined the Army in 1979 in response to the Iranian Hostage Crisis. Since 2005, Lt. Col. Noriega served as Laredo Border Sector Commander in Operation Jump Start and as the Incident Commander at the George R. Brown Convention Center for evacuees to Houston in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.
Rick Noriega's background as a military man for nearly three decades will provide a vital perspective and fill a needed gap among our leaders as we work to rebuild international alliances and confront the many obstacles to peace and prosperity here, and around the world.
