    Thank you Mr. Hause. Greg Abbott considers water solutions one of his top priorities. How would you like to see this accomplished?

    Thank you Mr. Sumner, this is very thorough! We will definitely take this into consideration.
    In case you haven’t read them, Greg Abbott’s ethics proposals start on page 8: http://abbotttownhall.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/GregAbbottsWethePeoplePlanFINAL.pdf

    Thank you for writing! Greg Abbott agrees that veterans have done so much for our country and should be able to easily find employment with their skill sets. Please read Greg Abbott’s Jobs for Vets plan and let us know what you think: http://www.gregabbott.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/Jobs-for-Vets.pdf

    Thank you for writing, Mr. Barmore, that is indeed worrisome. Please see Working Texans, starting on page 4, for Greg Abbott’s recommendations on state and local debt: http://abbotttownhall.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/GregAbbottsWorkingTexansPlan.pdf

    For instance, creating clear and concise transparency requirements for the disclosure of debt information to voters in state and local bond elections, and requiring all local taxing entities to post their financial statements and local government contracts online.

    Thank you all for posting. Securing the border is one of Greg Abbott’s top priorities. “We must do more to protect our border going beyond sporadic surges,” Abbott said. “As governor I will almost double the spending for DPS border security. I’ll add more boots on the ground, more assets in the air and on the water, and deploy more technology and tools for added surveillance.”

    Hi Ms. Olson-Murphy-
    Please see the recommendation on page 22 of Healthy Texans: http://www.gregabbott.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Greg-Abbotts-Healthy-Texans-Plan.pdf
    “Recommendation: Transform social service delivery and provide more comprehensive support by allowing persons on public assistance to opt-in to being contacted by charitable organizations.”

    Is that the sort of program you had in mind?

    Thanks Mr. O’Quin. ASL can be offered for high school language credit: http://ritter.tea.state.tx.us/rules/tac/chapter114/ch114c.html
    How would you like to see that expanded?

    Thank you, Ms. Ruffin and Mr. Sumner.
    Greg Abbott believes that the current structure of TRS should be maintained.
    The cost of health care benefits is a shared responsibility among the state, active and retired teachers, and school districts. When dealing with health care costs, the solutions are multifaceted and generally involve more funding from multiple sources. Educators should not have to shoulder these costs alone.
    The state must do its part to review a funding policy that is almost two decades old, and is based on costs and structures from the 1990s. Greg Abbott will work with all parties so that, together, they may find better ways to fund these long-term healthcare costs.

    We appreciate your perspective, Ms. Hornung!

    Please see the Educating Texans: Pre-K–Third Grade plan on page 23 for the Head Start research:

    Thank you Mr. Abrams. Does this tie in to discipline issues?
