Statewide Propositions Texas Conservatives Vote...
PROPOSITION 1 - The technical college program is a good program, but we need oversight by elected officials who are accountable to the People. Strengthens vocational education by creating two permanent funds.

CONSERVATIVES SHOULD VOTE NO! NO / AGAINST
PROPOSITION 2 - Reinforces a no-income tax posture in Texas, preventing future tax increases on investment gains. Provides predictability for investors and high-net-worth taxpayers. Yes / For

PROPOSITION 4 - Creates a $1 billion annual funding scheme for statewide water infrastructure. Making it a constitutional amendment takes it out of the regular appropriations process, creating a rigid funding mechanism and rendering those monies immune from legislative accountability.
