When I ran for office, I made a promise to keep more money in your pocket. Last session, I delivered on that promise, passing the largest property tax cut in Texas history—over $18 billion in relief—but I know we can do even better. As I listen to constituents across our community, my heart breaks to see families still struggling to make ends meet due to high property tax bills, mom-and-pop shops closing their doors from unnecessary taxation, and rural Texans being robbed of the opportunity to pass down land and wealth to the next generation.
When I am in budget meetings and voting on tax policy, I am always aware of the responsibility I have to allocate your tax dollars responsibly. It’s more than numbers to me. While other lawmakers may forget, I will never forget that every dollar we have available to spend is linked to a hardworking Texan who expects nothing less than fiscal responsibility.
With that said, I am excited to share the significant tax relief bills we are taking up this session, some of which we passed last week!
