Issue Position: Wages

Issue Position

What I hear from many voters and locally elected officials is a need to return local control to our counties and municipalities. Cities should be allowed to have open debate about raising the minimum wage and not fear overarching obstruction from those in Austin.

Texas has done a great job at making our state open for business but what about those who work at these businesses? When we grant tax abatements and land use deals, we need to know more about the standards for pay and benefits at the companies we have welcomed to our state.
