Environment

While we are blessed with natural resources, we must find a way to tap into those resources with as little impact on our environment and communities as possible. I plan to lead the charge to revamp Texas Commission on Environmental Quality and make it an agency that can, in cooperation with all stakeholders, create a framework for the future of clean fossil fuel production in Texas. Environmental protection and future economic prosperity are not mutually exclusive; they are irrevocably linked. The responsible environmental practices we follow today will directly impact future generations. We owe it to our children not to leave a legacy of polluted air and poisoned water.
