Hello Patriots,
Election Day is just around the corner, and it has been a busy week across Texas. I joined Vice President JD Vance in Harlingen to rally Republicans ahead of November, then joined business leaders in Houston, and spoke with fellow Republicans in Amarillo for a GOTV event.
Back at the Comptroller’s Office, September sales tax revenue totaled $4.4 billion, while we took action to end the hidden double tax on marketplace fees.
Abolishing A Hidden Double-Tax
Ending the hidden double tax on marketplace fees isn’t a cost to government. You can’t lose what was never yours.
This is millions of dollars going back to Texans. That’s how you make Texas affordable again.
Rally with Vice President Vance
It was an honor to speak at Vice President J.D. Vance’s Get Out the Vote Rally in Harlingen.
Promises Made. Promises Kept.
Promises made. Promises kept.
Texas is getting $7.5 billion back for the costs of securing our border. This is just step one in making Texas whole and putting your tax dollars back where they belong.
I’ll keep fighting to protect taxpayers, root out waste, and put Texas First.
Amarillo GOTV Rally
What a great group of patriots joining together for the Republicans Unite Rally in Amarillo!
Thank you to RPT Chairwoman D’rinda Randall and the Amarillo Republicans. You are the firewall that will keep Texas Red!
September Sales Tax Revenue
If collections continue to hold up, the Legislature will be well positioned to dedicate the surplus to meaningful property tax relief that eases the burden on homeowners, businesses, and renters.
Funding Rural Law Enforcement
I’m proud to help channel vital resources into rural jurisdictions across Texas, enabling local agencies to maintain and strengthen critical emergency and law enforcement services.
Houston Business Forum
I spoke with some of Houston’s top business leaders this week about my plans to make Texas the best state in the nation to make a living.
Texas should be the place where businesses can grow, families can prosper, and every taxpayer can keep more of what they earn.
That starts with cutting waste, reducing the burden of government, and keeping Texas open for business.
Verse of the Week
Help us, Lord, to meditate on your ways, and to be grateful for your works. Help our hearts to be glad at all times so that we may be happy warriors for Christ.
