Corporate Lobbying, Natural Resources, Taxpayer Funded Parties
The influence of corporate lobbies like Exxon and Halliburton on the legislature is criticized, with a call for Texas's natural resources to benefit its citizens directly. The discussion also targets taxpayer-funded lobbying by the Texas Education Agency and the $100 million spent on political conventions. Concerns are raised regarding the Real ID Act, biometric IDs, and the expansion of the welfare state.
