George W. Bush: “Tonight, I propose a permanent Cabinet-level Department of Homeland Security to unite essential agencies that must work…”

Is it in our national interests that 25 million people who would have died now live? I think it is, and so do you.

We are grateful to the first responders and volunteers who are working to find the missing and comfort the grieving at Camp Mystic and along the Guadalupe.

On this day of prayer, Laura and I are holding up our fellow Texans who are hurting.

You've showed the great strength of America through your work—and that is your good heart.
