Honoring a Trusted Community Partner
The United Corpus Christi Chamber of Commerce is proud to honor the Coastal Bend Texas Delegation as our Community Partner of the Year at the United Chamber Awards Gala. This award recognizes a valued community partner whose collaboration and support advance the Chamber’s mission. The Coastal Bend Texas Delegation continues to work alongside the Chamber to strengthen our business community, foster meaningful connections, and create lasting impact across the Coastal Bend. The delegation includes Senator Juan “Chuy” Hinojosa of District 20, Senator Adam Hinojosa of District 27, Texas State Representative Todd Hunter of District 32, Texas State Representative Denise Villalobos of District 34, and Texas State Representative JM Lozano of District 43. Together, they provide steady leadership and a shared commitment to serving the people, employers, and communities of South Texas.
Advancing Policies That Support Business and Growth
This year, members of the delegation are actively involved in key legislative priorities that align with the Chamber’s advocacy work. They support measures that strengthen local economic infrastructure and investment, including legislation that enhances water planning, tourism related project financing, and major TWIA reforms, all of which are critical priorities for sustainable growth in the Coastal Bend.


The United Corpus Christi Chamber of Commerce sincerely thanks the Coastal Bend Texas Delegation for their continued partnership, leadership, and dedication to the Coastal Bend. Their commitment to collaboration and advocacy strengthens our region and supports a business environment where opportunity can grow.
These leaders represent the best of what it means to serve collaborate and lead with purpose. Each will be honored again alongside additional award recipients at our annual awards gala.
