    I kept asking, but no one had an answer for me. So I did some homework to figure out what the Governor’s 2.5% tax revenue cap could cost Texas ($30 billion over 10 years for just schools) and I wrote something about it. Give it a read.

    Horrific crimes like this is why Texas passed a ban on sanctuary city policies. We don’t want Texas to become a sanctuary for illegal immigrants like California. We insist on working with ICE to enforce the law & keep Texans safe.

    It's time for government at all levels to stop imposing skyrocketing property taxes on Texans and end costly big-government regulations. It's not a fight between the state & cities. It's a battle for individual rights.

    According to Dale Craymer, local school property taxes will increase by $7.5 billion. Student population growth will only cost $4 billion. So, where will that extra $3.5 billion go?

    Under my plan property tax revenue growth would be capped at 2.5% per year. Had my plan been in effect your property tax increase would be about 8.5% less. Much more money would be in your pocket. Remember that when you hear local government officials criticize my plan.

    My property taxes have gone up an average of 11% per year...

    “As they’ve had to put less money into schools, they’ve put it in the Rainy Day Fund, then turned around and pointed fingers at [local governments], and said ‘they’re raising the property taxes.’”

    The reason the majority of Americans are balking at appropriating money for the "Wall" is because we harbor grave doubts that it will actually secure our borders. Spending billions of taxpayer dollars for a "wall" to gain political points is just silly.

    President is keeping his promise to make border security the top priority.
