    Texas is home to 4 of top 11 metro areas in U.S. for new entrepreneurs. We’re working to keep it that way. #txlegehttps://www.dallasnews.com/business/economic-snapshot/2017/06/09/changing-face-entrepreneurship …

        Tough to tweet this, and not veto #hb3287. You're either for us or against us. You either help #entrepreneurs or help your #donor$ #txlege

        Please help TX retired teachers who dedicated their lives to TX children. We need decent health insurance! Disgraceful.

        We need to first convince teachers to stand by our conservative beliefs to make America great again and quit poisoning our children's minds!

        We actually teach exactly/only what the state lays out in our k-12 standards. Visit TEA for a list of the TEKS.

        I believe that applies to a fair number of teacher's but I also believe that far too many are interjecting their own political views!

        And yet you constantly berate these metro areas because they don't share your politics.

        That's your argument? Failing CA has been losing jobs to TX for years.

        Did you even read the article? Said historically TX has done better--which is true. According to BEA, TX outperformed CA 2010-2015.

        That's 2016--an (as they admit) anomaly. 2010-2015 = much different.
