PRESERVING AMERICAN FREEDOM
LIMITING THE EXPANSE OF GOVERNMENT POWER
Legislative Accountability
2016 State Party Platform

We support a transparent and accountable legislative process which includes a recorded and published vote and prohibits a legislative change without a vote. All content of any bill must be germane to the title of the act. We support that all bills presented in the United States Congress and Texas Legislature include citations to the authorizing constitutional provision, cost to implement, and impact on the family. We oppose omnibus legislation and the insertion of “pork barrel” funding for special interests. We oppose the use of signing statements by the President to circumvent the law.
