Rebuilding Our Foundations
True Representation for a better tomorrow!
Candidate For Texas House District 136
Hi, I'm Burton
About Me
I am a native Austinite, having lived in and around Austin almost my whole life. I served in the U.S. Army, and have pursued a career as an IT consultant for the past 20 years. I am a father of four, husband, and am entering this race because I believe a change is needed.
We should have a Common Goal
Over the past twenty-plus years, we have all seen our communities change. The two "major" parties have carved up our country and our communities, sharing the "spoils" amongst themselves. Government control has become the order-of-the-day. The United States and Texas Constitutions were not intended to hand control of our daily lives to government control. I hope you will join me in reversing this path.
Get Involved
This election cycle is being characterized as "for trump" or "against trump". I do not believe that at all. I believe it is about Individual Liberty. Do you have the opportunity, without government interference, to live the best life you can conceive? Talk to your friends, your neighbors, ask yourselves: "Are the laws, taxes, regulations and mandates allowing me to LIVE?" Join me, and the Libertarian Party of Texas. and turn Texas GOLD!
Why I am running
Education
There has been much talk about education funding for years. We taxpayers are spending more and more on education for children and not seeing the return on the investment. Simply throwing money at a "problem" will not solve the problem. School funding has increased over the years, and yet we as a State and a Nation continue to slip further behind...
Healthcare
Healthcare in the United States, and Texas, has become abysmal. I submit that "healthcare" today isn't caring for health, it is treating symptoms. We do not have "healthcare", we have "symptom-care".
Casting votes: Your RIGHT
Following the 2020 election, the "duopoly" began fighting tooth and nail against any changes to voting opportunities proposed by either side. The trouble is, there are still a LOT of unanswered questions regarding the collection and counting/accounting of ballots. In the most recent Texas legislative session, there were bills proposed to "alleviate concern" over the efficacy and completeness of elections. Believe it or not, a large number of ELECTED OFFICIALS, YOUR REPRESENTATIVES, decided to leave rather than do the job they were hired to do: namely, represent YOU, their constituents!
