Lt. Gov. Patrick announces grassroots advisory board
This is in addition to the group of business leaders already advising him - Tea Party leaders from around Texas will have the Lite Guv's ear
Lt.
Gov. Dan Patrick on Monday announced
the creation of what he's calling the "Lieutenant Governor Grassroots
Advisory Board." This is in addition to the advisory board made up
of business leaders that he announced two weeks ago.
He's
chosen Tea Party activists from around the state to advise him - folks like Dallas
Tea Party Co-Founder Ken Emanuelson and Joann
Fleming of Grassroots America We the People. “Governor Patrick has a
reputation for valuing folks outside the capitol complex who ask tough
questions and bring common sense solutions to the table,” Fleming said. “Our
primary focus will be on border security, education reform, and tax relief
legislation - serious issues important to a strong Texas."
Here
is the full
release from Patrick's office.
