I believe Texas needs leadership that respects individual liberty, spends responsibly, and tells the truth. I’m committed to fighting for a balanced budget, protecting your rights, properly funding schools, and bringing a straightforward, no-nonsense approach to state government. If my opponents are willing to debate the issues, I’ll be ready.

Texans are paying too much because the government is spending too much. It’s that simple. State leaders love to talk about “property tax relief,” but they rarely talk about cutting spending—the real driver of high taxes. If you don’t reduce spending, you’re not cutting taxes—you’re just moving them around.

Free markets work for everyone. Most immigrants come to Texas to work and build a better life—and when government gets out of the way, the number of jobs grows right along with the number of people willing to work. Opportunity isn’t fixed. It expands when we let it.

I’m skeptical of plans that promise lower property taxes without real spending cuts. Too often, those schemes just shift the burden to sales taxes or onto someone else. That’s not relief—that’s a shell game.

It’s time to legalize marijuana in Texas. Most Americans support it, and even in Texas, Democrats, Republicans, and Libertarians all agree it should at least be decriminalized. State after state has moved forward—legalizing, decriminalizing, or allowing medical use—while Texas falls behind. Meanwhile, people are still being arrested, saddled with criminal records, and burdened for life over something safer than alcohol.

If we want real tax relief, we have to shrink government. That means setting priorities, cutting waste, and letting Texans keep more of what they earn. There currently is a budget surplus, but that shows how we are being taxed more than we need to be. It also means school districts can be properly funded without increasing taxes of any kind.

End Dan Patrick's War on Drugs
Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick has been the number one obstacle to sensible drug policy reform in Texas. While Texans across the political spectrum are ready for change, he continues to block even modest reforms that would reduce penalties and bring our laws in line with reality.
