Today marks the beginning of our third annual membership drive. The bulk of the work we do is policy work that benefits us all: there is no customer and there is no fee. So the only revenue we receive, the revenue we need to fund our operations comes from our members. We need and appreciate your support.
And every donation helps. We grew our ranks in 2012 and look forward to growing more in 2013. As a result of your donations, our organization has managed to be at the forefront of several key liberty issues over the past year.
- We trained nearly 100 citizen activists about the legislative process and how to affect state law at our first annual Catalyst 730: Capitol Training Day formerly wetexans.com
- We continue to work with landowners and legislators to remedy the eminent domain abuse by private pipeline companies in our state. We supported a strong landowner protection bill filed by Rep. Oliviera and opposed an industry favoring bill proposed by Rep. Lewis.
- Our property tax elimination bill was filed this session by Rep. Lavender and received a hearing before the House Ways and Means Committee.
