TFR worked hard to educate voters on the records of elected officials, so they could hold them accountable. Voters overwhelmingly rejected lawmakers with failing grades on the Fiscal Responsibility Index. As a result, several fiscally-irresponsible incumbents were replaced.
Because of these historic results, the 89th legislative session is slated to include more new legislators committed to fiscal responsibility than anytime in recent history.
While TFR believes these candidates will be strong taxpayer advocates, we will be keeping track of their voting records via the Fiscal Responsibility Index. This tool ensures that voters are informed about how their lawmakers are performing in terms of promoting and maintaining fiscal responsibility.
We look forward to seeing these newly elected officials make a significant impact in the Texas House, standing alongside our seasoned taxpayer champions to create a better, more fiscally sound future for Texas.
TFR’s commitment to fostering responsible government, advocating for ethical taxation, and supporting free market principles has never been stronger. As always, TFR remains dedicated to monitoring legislative actions and providing taxpayers with the resources they need to make informed decisions and hold ALL elected officials accountable, ensuring they uphold the values and principles that benefit taxpayers, families, and small businesses across the Lone Star State.
Texans for Fiscal Responsibility relies on the support of private donors across the Lone Star State in order to promote fiscal responsibility and pro-taxpayer government in Texas. Please consider supporting our efforts! Thank you!
