Texas should strengthen election integrity by enforcing voter ID laws, securing voter rolls, expanding penalties for fraud, and ensuring transparent chain-of-custody for ballots. Voting must remain accessible through lawful methods while protecting against abuse, restoring public confidence, and ensuring every legal vote counts equally.
The state should focus on prevention personal responsibility and access not mandates. Texas should expand community based care support rural and mental health services reduce regulatory costs and strengthen the healthcare workforce. By increasing transparency competition and local solutions we can keep care affordable and accessible for all Texans.
I would support policies that attract private investment reduce burdensome regulations and expand workforce training tied to local industry needs. This includes strengthening career and technical education supporting small businesses improving infrastructure and ensuring rural and underserved communities are included in economic development incentives.
Texas should pursue an all of the above energy strategy that keeps costs low and reliability high. That means supporting oil and gas renewables nuclear and grid hardening while investing in innovation emissions reduction and responsible stewardship. Smart regulation not overregulation can protect our environment and keep Texas energy strong.
Texas must invest in long term water planning by expanding reservoirs repairing aging infrastructure promoting conservation and supporting desalination and reuse where feasible. Local control science based solutions and regional cooperation are key to meeting growing demand while protecting agriculture communities and future generations.
I support policies that strengthen public schools first by fully funding classrooms supporting teachers and ensuring accountability. School choice should not weaken public education. Every child deserves access to high quality instruction safe campuses and career ready pathways regardless of where they live or which school they attend.
