Originally from the Houston area, Congressman Dan Crenshaw is a 6th generation Texan, a retired Navy SEAL, and a current member of the U.S. House representing Texas’s second congressional district.

After graduating from college, Dan joined the Navy SEALs, where he spent 10 years serving our country. It was on his third tour that an IED blast badly damaged his vision, destroying his right eye and leaving his left eye barely functional. Dan, in true military and Texas fashion, refused to give up. He served two more tours after recovering from the blast. In 2016 he was medically retired as a Lieutenant Commander. He left the service with two Bronze Stars (one with Valor), the Purple Heart, the Navy Commendation Medal with Valor, and multiple other accolades. Two short years later he was elected to Congress.

Since January 2019, Dan has defended his country in a new role as a U.S. Representative. As a member of the House Homeland Security and Budget committees, Dan remains a steadfast defender of the founding ideals our country was built on and is a champion for fiscal responsibility, border security, and stronger infrastructure and flood mitigation programs in TX-02.
