~ At a luncheon hosted by the Fort Worth Chamber of Commerce (FWC), Governor Greg Abbott outlined his priorities for the 88th Legislative Session to maintain Texas' position as America's number one economic destination. Over 200 business and community leaders were in attendance, and the Governor praised Texas' successful business friendly policies and congratulated the FWC for their work to broaden educational opportunities in the area, including their role in expanding Texas A&M University's presence in downtown Fort Worth.

"Texas A&M's expansion in Fort Worth is a testament—in part—to the ingenuity and determination of people in this room," said Governor Abbott. "This new campus will redefine downtown Forth Worth by bringing more research and development opportunities, new businesses and investment, and an abundant workforce to the area. Fort Worth is a big part of the Texas economic juggernaut, and its success has been aided by strategic economic development tools—and to keep Texas the best state for business, our local communities need new economic development tools this session."

The Governor discussed additional actions that can be taken to bolster economic development across the state. He noted that cutting property taxes, rolling back unnecessary regulations, bolstering workforce development programs, and making critical infrastructure improvements are paramount to the future of Texas' enduring economic success. The FWC is an organization dedicated to building a strong foundation of existing business and attracting new commerce and talent to Fort Worth.

Governor Abbott concluded his address by emphasizing that these measures are necessary for Texas to remain competitive on a global scale. He expressed confidence that with these initiatives in place, Texas will continue its reign as America's number one economic destination.
