“Paul Bettencourt is a friend and ally in the war for conservative ideas. He is a veteran of countless battles, always standing for conservative principles. His intellect and command of the issues will make him an immediate threat to the liberals in Austin. I’ll be proud to have Paul Bettencourt representing me in the Texas Senate.”
Steven F. Hotze, MD
President, Conservative Republicans of Harris County
“I only wish Paul would drop the nick-name, the Taxman, as he’s always been for the Taxpayer!”
Terry Lowry
Host, What’s Up Radio Program
Editor, The Link Letter
“Paul Bettencourt, like Ronald Reagan, is a principled conservative who thinks of the Taxpayers, first, not last. He is the conservative problem solver we need in Austin. Paul is a visionary whose ideas will help Texas face the challenges of the future.”
Gary Polland
Editor, Texas Conservative Review
Former Chairman, Harris County Republican Party
“Paul Bettencourt is a principled conservative leader who will bring years of leadership experience and knowledge to the Texas Senate. Paul is committed to the lawsuit reforms that have helped to make the Texas economy the strongest in the nation, creating more new jobs than any other state. His record of public service is exemplary and TLR PAC is proud to endorse him.”
Richard J. Trabulsi, Jr.
Texans for Lawsuit Reform PAC Chairman
“Paul Bettencourt has always been there for us on every single fight for conservative causes, and as a citizen I’m there for him now in his race for SD 7.”
Pastor Rick Scarbough
Vision America
“I formally endorse Paul Bettencourt for the position of State Senator District 7. He is a tried and true leader that stands strong on the Pro-Life and conservative issues that Senatorial District 7 holds so close to their heart. Paul has proven experience and a unique talent of pulling together both sides of the aisle to advance common sense public policy; all without sacrificing his core social and fiscal beliefs much like Ronald Reagan has done in the past. Please join me in proudly supporting the best candidate for Senate District 7 via sweat equity or financial support.”
David Riddle
Senate District 7, Chairman
“Paul Bettencourt is the Conservative Leader we need in Austin. Anytime our conservative values are attacked, we can always count on Paul to help lead the fight. It is this type of leadership we need in Austin. I’m honored to support him.”
