Issue Position: Rural Texas

Issue Position

As more of Texas' population shifts to urban and suburban areas, those of us in rural Texas will have to work even harder to make sure that rural interests are protected. That is the primary purpose of the Rural Caucus, where Bryan Hughes serves as Vice Chairman. The Rural Caucus, whose membership is drawn from nearly 100 members of the Texas House and Senate, is of special importance to us in District Five, since it works to address the needs of rural Texas and to make sure that rural interests are represented in the Legislature. From water and agriculture issues to transportation and redistricting and budget concerns, our work on the Rural Caucus is making a real difference in the fight to preserve our rural way of life.
