Position history

1. Published Aug 25, 2026 · Energy & environment

   Texas is a large, diverse state. By tailoring regulations and Commission operations to the specific environment and needs across our state, rather than using blanket rules that apply the same to operators of various sizes in different environments, we can make production more efficient while producing responsibly.

   As a rancher, I have dealt with environmental issues on my own property. I understand the landowner perspective and will work with the industry and with landowners to find solutions that safeguard our land and environment while allowing energy to be produced efficiently.

   If renewables can help meet our energy needs, that’s great. I believe these projects should be economic on their own without taxpayer-funded incentives. These projects may become more successful in the future as technology develops.

   Water usage is at the top of the list. Our economy is growing and people are moving to Texas in droves. I will work with the best oil industry experts to help find innovative solutions to water use.
