Congressman Joe Barton visits Buffalo

Congressman Joe Barton and Judge Byron Ryder share a laugh at Thursday night’s meeting. Sherry’s Shots Joe Barton visited Buffalo on Thursday, February 18 and treated approximately 50 supporters to dinner catered by Country Cousins. Following the dinner Barton took the floor and spoke for about 30 minutes, addressing three primary concerns; cap and trade; health care; spending and the increase in the deficit. Barton then took questions from the audience.

Barton is a Republican and has been the Texas 6th Congressional District U.S. Representative since 1985. His district includes seven counties: Ellis, Houston, Leon, Limestone, Navarro, Tarrant and Trinity.
