“This funding is vital to ensure that low-income residents can pay their utility bills – which are increasing due to Joe Biden’s failed energy policies,” said Congresswoman Mayra Flores (TX-34.) noting that roughly 2,900 applications in her district will go unfunded. Utility bills have been increasing all over Texas and the nation due to inflation – and Mr. Biden’s anti-American energy policies.

“We continue to leverage cutting edge technology to improve efficiency for staff and operators, and we'll use our experience to extend our success through the next year,” said Wei Wang, Executive Director of the oil & gas regulating Texas Railroad Commission, after the agency surpassed critical goals to protect public safety, the environment, while maximizing the state's natural resources.

Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds walks down a Main Street-like sidewalk, passing small business storefronts in her TV Ad. "Here, we still have Common Sense. We kept businesses open, and kids in school. We cut taxes, and support our police. In Iowa, America still works," she says. Then, the Iowa Democrat Party chair says, "We need to call this what it is: a racist and dangerous stunt using stereotypes to score political points." WHAT?!

“For too long, the voices of conservative Hispanic women have been absent from the political arena. Hispanic women are a force, and will change the status quo,” said former Texas Supreme Court Justice Eva Guzman, who will chair Conservative Hispanas in Action. The Hispanic community’s concerns — rising crime, the economy, political corruption, and the crisis at Texas' Border are their priorities.

State governments are competing for residents from high-tax states by cutting tax rates. New evidence shows that cutting tax rates – or keeping them low – attracts residents, especially high-income earners, from high-tax states. And... Why should the rest of us care? Two important reasons.

"Texas is proud to be the nation's #1 exporting state for 20 years in a row, and we're beating our competitors in other states because of the efficiency and effectiveness of Port Houston," said Texas Gov. Greg Abbott. "Texas' economy is booming, but our state — and Port Houston — could unleash its full economic potential if the federal government would get out of the way."

According to Texas Comptroller Glenn Hegar, the state's energy producers paid $552 million in taxes in September 2022, up 41% from September 2021. “The oil and natural gas industry is meeting our energy needs more responsibly than any other nation in the world, while funding public education and our state’s Rainy Day Fund,” said Todd Staples, president of the Texas Oil & Gas Association.

Joe Biden, the supposed head of the Democrat Party, is 79 – but he consistently sounds and acts like he's 89. Nancy Pelosi is 82 – and she at times she seems entrapped in her world disconnected from reality. Kamala Harris can't plead age as cause for her mental confusion. So why is the Democrat Party run by people with age-related cognitive disabilities that startle both Americans at home and our allies abroad?

“Crime is the beneath-the-iceberg issue for voters in 2022, and it’s absolutely clear in these numbers. Americans of all political backgrounds have a strong belief in protecting the innocent, and punishing the guilty,” said Mark Meckler, president of the organization conducting a recent poll showing that 95% of "Likely General Election Voters" oppose Democrat policies favoring release of violent criminals.

​​​​​​​Over the past decade, most states have taken a page out of Texas’ playbook and are now winning major corporate re-location projects that Texas has traditionally won. As a result, Texas needs to design an updated effort to replace the one expiring in 2022. Without a state-based incentive program, Texas will not be on a level playing field to recruit jobs to local communities around the state.

U.S. Senator Ted Cruz and Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) today sent a letter to U.S. Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo calling on her to address the role of so-called Environmental, Social & Governance (ESG) standards in facilitating anti-Semitic boycotts of Israel.

With over 27 years of experience in the Electric & Gas Industries, Gov. Greg Abbott has appointed Pablo Vegas of Austin as the new President & CEO of ERCOT – the Energy Reliability Council of Texas. Vegas is a trustee of the American Gas Association Foundation, and is a member of the Society of Gas Lighting and the Young Presidents' Organization.

In 2015, three female gymnasts brought formal complaints to the FBI's Indianapolis Field Office asserting that they and 100s of other young women had been molested by USA Gymnastics' medical coordinator and physician. Later, an Inspector General of the U.S. Justice Department revealed the FBI had poorly handled the case – and the investigation's process.

“State sales tax collections continued to climb rapidly in September, with solid growth in all major economic sectors,” said Comptroller Glenn Hegar. Total sales tax revenue for just the three month period ending with September 2022 was up 14.9% compared to the same period a year ago. Texas' state sales tax revenue totaled $3.69 billion in September 2022.

The people of the Keystone State have really screwed this one up – not just in electing John "Uncle Fester" Fetterman as their #2 statewide elected official, but in putting those Democrats in charge of running their state at the top of the ticket. As we’ve seen with other incompetent or otherwise simply not up to the job Democrats, their party fails people up.

"Rather than making tough decisions that prioritize spending, Congress is passing a 'Continuing Resolution' to fund the government at the same levels until after the election. Notably, instead of protecting Americans by securing our border, this bill funds the recently expanded IRS that will soon include 87,000 new IRS Agents focused on targeting ordinary Americans," said Sen. Cruz.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has deployed additional Texas State man-power to the State of Florida to assist in response and recovery efforts there, including firefighters and resources from Nacogdoches Fire & Rescue, the Texarkana & Lufkin Fire Departments, Smith County Emergency Services District, Jackson Heights Volunteer Fire Department, and the San Antonio Fire Department.

“While President Biden falsely insists inflation is ‘zero,’ many Americans report they're skipping meals, raiding their savings, and looking for extra work to try to make ends meet. The truth is, thanks to his bungling, our economy is shrinking," said House Republican's tax policy leader Cong. Kevin Brady after a key Personal Expenditures Index rose a much higher than expected 6.2% in August.
