Education & Health
An educated and healthy workforce ensures Texas thrives in the knowledge economy.
well-educated workforce
In the knowledge economy, educated workers are our most important asset—but only half of rising workers are qualified for the six million high-skill jobs coming to Texas by 2036. Effective conservatives prioritize student success, teacher support, school finance reform, affordable and accessible higher education, and excellence at Texas Tier One universities.
healthy families
The COVID-19 pandemic exposed serious vulnerabilities in health care. Effective conservatives are committed to sensible reforms, including increasing access to care through telemedicine and expanded broadband, lowering the cost of care through price transparency and expanded coverage, and improving health outcomes through lower drug costs and better care.
