Congressman Lloyd Doggett

WASHINGTON - Two San Antonio congressmen on Tuesday demanded that Attorney General Jeff Sessions answer allegations that the Justice Department is improperly rejecting candidates for immigration judges and the Board of Immigration Appeals based on politics.

Congressman Doggett sat down with Spectrum News Austin to discuss the implications of the release of the once classified Republican-drafted memo.

Following President Trump's State of the Union, we will push forward to hold him accountable. I'd like to take a moment to thank you for your advocacy, determination, and faith and to urge you to continue keeping the faith throughout the year.

Following the 2018 MLK March in San Antonio, Congressman Doggett visited with the brothers of Omega Psi Phi, including Basileus Jimmie McMillion and former Basileus E.J. Moore.

On PBS Newshour, I discussed the mountain of debt that the Republican tax bill would create to benefit those already atop the economic ladder. We ought to be closing tax loopholes for multinationals corporations, not making it easier to outsource jobs.

Will this be Lloyd Doggett’s moment? After years of relative obscurity, the Democratic congressman from Austin is about to have the spotlight shining on him — and the issues he cares about. With the signature tax reform bill of President Donald Trump and the GOP ready for a marathon session starting Monday in the House Ways and Means Committee, Doggett, a senior member of the panel, is ready for action.
