In advance of the 2014 elections, Texans for Fiscal Responsibility today endorsed Paul Bettencourt for Senate District 7.

“Paul Bettencourt is a proven leader with an unmatched record as a taxpayer watchdog,” said TFR president Michael Quinn Sullivan. “Paul Bettencourt is tireless advocate for the commonsense values that empower Texans.”

Paul Bettencourt previously served as the reform-minded tax assessor-collector for Harris County.

“Paul Bettencourt has been a fierce champion for taxpayers, advocating for fiscal responsibility when it wasn’t cool and demanding accountability for government when it wasn’t popular,” added Sullivan. “The Lone Star State will shine brighter with Paul Bettencourt in the Texas Senate.”
