Not only is this settlement historic, but it demonstrates the hard work and commitment of my office for standing up to standing up for the rights of Texans against some of the world's biggest tech companies. The OAG's legal divisions raise substantially more revenue than they do they need to operate, providing a direct return of almost $3 for every dollar used to operate.

Additionally, my office has collected nearly 44.2 billion in child support. (02:05–02:14)
