Bringing President Trump’s DOGE to Texas
As your Texas Comptroller, Don Huffines will DOGE our government to root out waste, fraud, and inefficiency–and return the savings to you, the taxpayer. He’s the only officeholder in Texas who refused to take a single penny of government money, because he works for you, not the government. A fifth-generation Texan, husband, father, grandfather, courageous proven conservative, and self-made businessman, Huffines will bring a private-sector mindset to the office: you’re the customer, and he’s here to earn your trust. And if the government is spending your money, Huffines believes he has a fiduciary responsibility to ensure it’s spent wisely, transparently, and with accountability. That means a lean, transparent, and results-driven Comptroller’s office that audits government, exposes corruption, and protects your hard-earned money.
AUDIT GOVERNMENT
The state of Texas spends more than $500 million a day, seven days a week. Right now, wasteful spending runs unchecked. As Comptroller, Huffines will examine every corner of government to root out fraud, waste, and abuse. The Comptroller has powerful tools: enforcing accounting standards, denying improper payments, and exposing misuse through transparency portals and real-time data. Huffines will use every one of them to protect your tax dollars, because every cent the government spends belongs to you. Texans deserve transparency on how their hard-earned money is spent and a Comptroller who ensures the will of the people, not left-wing bureaucrats, is running the show.


Expose Fraud, Waste, and Abuse
When Don Huffines served in the Texas Senate, he single-handedly led one of the largest government corruption takedowns in modern Texas history, exposing a fraudulent government agency, putting six government officials in prison, and shutting it down for stealing tens of millions of tax dollars. As Comptroller, he’ll do it again, using his authority to expose government corruption through rigorous financial oversight, transparency, and enforcement of fiscal discipline.
Modernize Texas Government
Don Huffines will modernize the Comptroller’s Office to improve money management, the collection and allocation of tax revenue, and the statewide property value study. He will also work across state agencies to improve the management of state personnel and accounting systems. This will help agencies talk to each other and eliminate the bureaucratic bottlenecks that waste time and taxpayer money. Texans deserve a government that works as efficiently as the businesses and taxpayers that fund it.


Exterminate DEI in Government
Don Huffines has a proven record of fighting radical DEI and gender ideology in state government. He publicly exposed the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services for promoting transgender ideology with taxpayer dollars, directly leading to the shut down of a state-run LGBTQ+ youth webpage. As Comptroller, he will use every tool available to root out DEI programs and ensure that taxpayer money is spent based on what is best for Texans rather than on the discriminatory principles of DEI.
Stop Giving Illegals Our Money
Don Huffines will use the full power of the Comptroller’s office to track the true cost of illegal immigration, enforce compliance with E-Verify, and reduce taxpayer-funded benefits to illegal aliens in Texas. Huffines will expose the billions wasted on illegal immigration and work with lawmakers to protect Texas taxpayers.


Demand a Transparent, Conservative Budget
Don Huffines will hold the line on spending by rigorously enforcing the Texas Constitution’s balanced budget requirement. He will collaborate with Republican lawmakers in the Legislature to craft a fiscally responsible, conservative budget that prioritizes the needs of Texas families. By bringing disciplined oversight and transparency to the state’s finances, Huffines will ensure Texans know exactly how their hard-earned tax dollars are being used.
Return the Savings to Taxpayers
Property taxes sentence us to a lifetime of renting our property from the government. Don Huffines will DOGE our government and root out waste and fraud. He will fight to return the DOGE savings and budget surpluses to Texas taxpayers through property tax relief so that Texas can eliminate the school M&O property tax.


Keep Texas Dollars in Texas
The Comptroller is the state’s chief purchasing officer, managing billions in contracts, payments, and procurement. All things being equal, Don Huffines will make it a top priority to invest in Texas businesses, not out-of-state vendors or woke blue-state banks. From office supplies to banking relationships, if Texas taxpayers are footing the bill, Texans should reap the benefits. Huffines will streamline refunds, cut red tape, and ensure our dollars stay here.
Implement School Choice
As Comptroller, Don Huffines is 100% responsible for Texas’s new Education Savings Account program, ensuring it’s transparent, accountable, and built to empower parents, not bureaucracies. He’ll make sure funds go directly to parents, with safeguards to prevent waste, abuse, and government overreach. Huffines will bring competition to education, protect taxpayers, and deliver the most efficient, parent-driven school choice program in the country.


Defend the American Dream
Homeownership is the foundation of the American Dream, but today, that dream is slipping away. Government is the number one driver of housing costs, from sky-high property taxes to California-style regulation and red tape. As Comptroller, Don Huffines will expose the policies making homes unaffordable, fight to eliminate the school property tax, and shine a light on local spending and regulations that are pricing Texans out.
