Last year, the Texas Legislature advanced crucial tort, regulatory, and tax reforms to help ensure the Lone Star State remains a beacon of opportunity and entrepreneurialism. But amid challenging economic conditions for local job creators, Texas cannot take a back seat. Main Street needs strong advocates in Austin.
