Growing up on a family farm, I know firsthand the challenges of running a small business... challenges that only seem to be growing for today's entrepreneurs.

Gov. Perry has led the way in Texas on creating an environment for job growth.

It's mystifying to me why the House leadership will not allow a straight up-or-down vote on a pay raise. I vote against every pay raise because taxpayers deserve better.

Do what your inner soul tells you to do, regardless of any money or success it will bring you.

I might have companies, I might have buildings, I might have art. But money? No, I'm not holding that.
