Yes, count me in!
I support the elimination of the cap on sporting goods tax and
letting the Texas Parks & Wildlife Dept. utilize this money to repair
and operate all 114 parks, including the Texas State Railroad, which
have fallen into a state of disrepair.
Furthermore, I would like to see Texas Parks & Wildlife Dept. begin
work on the Water and Land Conservation Plan which will add four new
parks and 5,000 acres to meet the growing needs of Texans.
