Since first considering this race in January Ive encountered strong support across Texas for my campaign. Texans know I have a proven track record on issues vital to our state and a unique brand of leadership to get it done. . . Texas is ready for a leader that isnt afraid to take on the tough issues. Whether bringing jobs to Texas defending Texas values or standing up to an intrusive federal government I never shy away from a fight."
