Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) and Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick (R) were both sworn in for their third terms Tuesday morning.
, Abbott on Tuesday laid out his vision for the next four years. Texas has an almost $33 billion surplus this legislative session and the governor wants to use it for property tax cuts.
In addition, Abbott pointed to improvements made with the power grid, which held up during recent tests of severe winter weather. But he said they will need to do more to keep up with the increased demand for power as the state's population continues to grow. “What we did not hear from Gov. Abbott and Lt. Gov. Patrick is a plan to address the economic pain Texans are facing. All over this state, families are having difficult conversations around the kitchen table about the rising costs of goods and services: a dozen eggs are $6, college tuition is rising, and insurance and utility bills are skyrocketing,” said Fischer."We should use this historic moment to right the wrongs of the last thirty years.
