- $18 Billion Property Tax Cuts which will make it easier for small business owners to raise wages, create new jobs, and invest in their communities.
- The Texas Regulatory Consistency Act which will help small business owners better comply with regulations, rather than being burdened by the complexity of multiple jurisdictions of law over their business practices.
- The Creation of Business Courts to handle complex litigation and give small business owners greater confidence in our legal system.
