The Texas Republican Primary is just around the corner. If you are disappointed about how little of significance was accomplished in the Texas legislature this session, the primary is the place to make positive changes.
When the lines were redrawn recently, San Saba ended up in House District 68 which changed who represents us. David Spiller from Jacksboro is now our representative.
When the Texas people voted in a Republican House do you think they wanted Democrats appointed to important committees so that any positive conservative action would be killed? The Texas Republican Party voted overwhelmingly that this practice should end. This could be one of the reasons good bills were never brought to the floor. Who supported this?
Is your representative voting in a manner that doesn’t make sense for a rep that professes to be a conservative? Could they be accepting large amounts of money from left leaning entities, and if so, what is expected of them in return for those large donations? To see who is funding your rep, go to: transparencyUSA. org, then highlight your state, go to the election cycle you are interested in (the 2022 is that last full cycle), put your rep’s name in the search box and you will see the top contributors along with a lot of other information. Grassroots America We the People is another excellent resource for candidate information.
If you are having trouble keeping up with what’s going on in Austin, The Texas Scorecard
is a great place to stay informed. Spending five minutes each weekday morning with Michael Quinn Sullivan & The Texas Minute and 30 minutes once a week listening to the Luke Macias Show will help you understand a lot of what’s going on in Texas politics. There are other programs as well on the Texas Scorecard website that are full of information and important interviews such as the Chris Salcedo Show. If you are curious about what your representative has accomplished good or bad, you can plug in their name and quickly do a search through the archives of the Texas Scorecard for an overview of their performance.
Texas grassroots conservatives are up against a very well-funded Austin swamp with money flowing in from every part of the globe. If we wait until the general election in November it will be too late to assure that good conservatives represent us in the Texas legislature because the primary is the deciding vote for most elections in Texas. It will take an informed and motivated grassroots movement to root out the rot in our state government. Are you willing to stay informed and share your knowledge and vote in the Republican Primary March 5 to bring positive results for the state of Texas?
