"The new TIAA Corporate Center in Frisco is a testament to the exceptional economic climate we have here in Texas. Businesses and organizations thrive in the Lone Star State, and we look forward to the job growth and services that will be provided in Frisco," said Governor Abbott, announcing the project that will create 2,000 new jobs and nearly $58 million in capital investments.
“Safe drinking water and sanitary disposal systems protect us from disease, and are fundamentally important for public health. I secured this funding so my constituents in colonias and rural areas can have safe drinking water for their families,” said Cong. Henry Cuellar, while also announcing that $2 million in funding was included in Congress's Fiscal Year 2022 Budget Bill for Neighborworks Laredo.
"We know what’s going to happen in May: wave upon wave of illegal aliens claiming ‘asylum.’ The answer is to secure the border – not overwhelm it even more by enacting cheap, easy incentives for illegal aliens to get into the United States," said Texas' Attorney General Ken Paxton, filing suit to challenge a new series of Biden White House regulations that would unlawfully change asylum & parole procedures at the border.
Abruptly leftists began trashing their favorite electronic communications platform as the domain of the nation's elite, professional classes. Had they just discovered that they had been racists and privileged users all this time?
“The record supports a showing of immediate and irreparable harm. The states contend that the termination of the Title 42 orders will result in increased costs and burdens, including increased healthcare costs. The Court concludes the record supports these allegations, and that the fact of those increased costs is sufficient to support injunctive relief."
"Already home to 3 million small businesses that employ nearly half of the Texas workforce, our state is focused on developing an environment where entrepreneurs have the freedom to aspire, grow, and prosper," said Gov. Abbott, announcing the schedule and kickoff of his in-person 2022 Governor’s Small Business Series held in communities around Texas beginning in El Paso on May 5, 2022.
“The system was designed to protect these children, but when 1,000s of them go missing each year its evident there's a serious problem," said Cong. Eddie Bernice Johnson, introducing a bipartisan effort with Cong. Tony Gonzales to provide better care and information-sharing between states and the Administration of Children and Families (ACF) for missing and runaway foster youth.
The Railroad Commission’s Surface Mining & Reclamation Division (SMRD) has earned national recognition for excellence in its drone training program – which highlights safety and operational efficiency.
Before 1985, inflation in the United States put people in higher tax brackets even if their real income – discounting inflation, that is – hadn’t budged. The term we used at the time was “bracket creep.” Fortunately, in 1981, Congress passed – and President Reagan signed – a bill that cut tax rates for the next three years. And most of the years between 1979 and 1999 had inflation rates of 3% or less.
Democrats are terrified. The lengths to which they'll go to silence their political opponents – as opposed to defeating them at the polls – tells you everything you need to know about today's Democrats. The reason "The Left" wants to silence regular old Americans and "Conservatives" is because they’re afraid more want to join our ranks. If nothing else, this move by Elon Musk to buy Twitter makes that crystal clear.
As president, Joe Biden's left our country in a dire situation. With the ending of Title 42 coming next month, an estimated 18,000 illegal immigrants per day may flood into our communities that are already overburdened with migrants. And don’t think that these are only innocent migrants running from failed governments in South and Central America.
While Att. Gen. Ken Paxton stated that Houston ISD’s Covid-19 Paid-Leave Policy does not, on its face, violate an employee’s medical privacy rights, he did clarify that “HISD is a covered entity under the Texas Medical Records & Privacy Act, and must comply with its provisions. Any standard documentation that certifies an individual’s COVID-19 vaccination status constitutes a 'vaccine passport'.”
“By rescinding our Medicaid waiver, the Biden Administration needlessly threatened the healthcare of many vulnerable Texans. Texas knows its own healthcare needs better than the federal government, and this puts those needs first,” said Cruz after Biden restored the state's 10-year waiver that - if not allowed - could have jeopardized the coverage of 2-out-of-5 Texas children who rely on Medicaid.
“I was horrified by the crimes against fellow Texan and service member SPC Vanessa Guillén, and hope this legislation honors her memory and legacy as a monumental step toward ending sexual assault and harassment in our nation’s military. The SHIIP Act creates commonsense protections and processes to ensure that instances of sexual assault are removed from the military’s chain of command,” said South Texas Rep. Tony Gonzales.
The Texas Workforce Commission's Jobs & Education for Texans (JET) Program supports Texas' employers by preparing students for careers in occupations identified as being in high demand. And now approximately $50 million has been allocated to help eligible institutions that apply for grant funding to defray the start-up costs of developing Career & Technical Education Programs.
It’s always fun when progressive jerks try to use their bizarre phrase of "that's not who our nation is" to get us to do what they want. From running down the bedrock idea of "free speech," to "reimagining democracy” into meaning that they have total control over cultural and political power, turning our kids into gender-baffled sex objects for some miniscule slice of Democrat perverts is unacceptable.
While Americans are rightfully and understandably stressed about the rapidly increasing price of gasoline at the pump, those escalating prices are not due the reasons Joe Biden is telling us. The most significant cause is his policies related to the Oil & Gas Industry. These began on his first day in office, when he unilaterally canceled the permits for the partially constructed Keystone XL Pipeline.
Even Democrats from all across the nation are now complaining about Joe Biden's failure to control our border – with some 2 million poor, unvaccinated & untested illegal immigrants crossing the Southern Border last year. The bigger problem is that some experts estimate the numbers in this 2022 Election Year could climb to 6 million! So, what is a nation if it doesn’t control its own borders?
