And that's what I have a track record of doing. I've served for four terms in the Texas legislature. I have passed 60 bipartisan bills with my Republican Colleagues in the state House Bills that cut property taxes, that raise teacher pay, that lower the cost of housing and childcare and prescription drugs, including insulin. And so I have a track record of bringing down costs for working Texans. I think that's what folks are looking for, not these divisive culture wars that have been pitting neighbor against neighbor for years now. (10:45–10:54)
