Businesses and people are flocking to Texas -- and it's not by mistake! We have aggressively implemented free-market, taxpayer-friendly policies that have created an environment where businesses can thrive, resulting in more quality, high-paying jobs for Texans. We must work collectively to protect the policies that have made Texas an economic powerhouse, while advancing smart reforms that lower taxes, ensure regulations are fair and predictable and crack down on abusive, frivolous lawsuits. And we must remain ever vigilant to stop legislation that threatens to stifle innovation and investment and that has proven in other states, to kill jobs and stall economies.
