It's
time for change on the Commissioners Court
and part of that change means the
introduction of term limits.
As each year goes by and our Commissioners
remain on the court, they increasingly
grow out of touch with the voters of
Collin County. A glaring example of
this is their funding of organizations
that lobby against your interests in
Austin using your taxpayer dollars.
Additionally, the budget process each year
is like Christmas for the Commissioners as
they find ways to reward themselves with
salary increases and longevity bonuses
that have doubled their compensation in
less than a decade. As
your County Commissioner, I will work to
reduce the pay for Commissioners and lock
it's salary for the duration of my term.
I
have started a Term Limits Petition so
that together, you and I, can work to
introduce term limits to the Collin County
Commissioners Court. Our Founding Fathers never intended for lifetime
politicians to feed at
the public trough for their own benefit. Rather, they envisioned a
citizenry who would volunteer their gifts and talents for a
period of time and then return to the private sector.
Join your fellow county citizens by placing your name on the petition to
make your voice heard and put an end to political self-dealing with your tax
dollars.
