We wanted to make sure you saw the op-ed filed by Representative Mayes Middleton and Representative Kyle Biedermann on banning taxpayer-funded lobbying.

Ending taxpayer-funded lobbying is a Republican Party of Texas Legislative Priority. We encourage all Republican Texans to learn about the issue and get involved in the fight to ban taxpayer-funded lobbying.

Republican Party of Texas Chairman James Dickey commented: 

“From the 2018 Convention, to the 86th Legislative Session, to the Primary just last week, Texans have sent a clear message: they demand the end to taxpayer-funded lobbying. We remain steadfast in working alongside our elected leaders to end this immoral practice and we will fight hard to ensure it ends. Thank you to Representative Mayes Middleton and Representative Kyle Biedermann for putting this issue at the top of their list.”

The work to end taxpayer-funded lobbying is not over, but we have allies on our side who we will work with diligently to finally end this practice.

For Texas,

James Dickey, Chairman
