  • Governor's Budget
    2020 – 2021 GOVERNOR’S BUDGET GREG ABBOTT GOVERNOR’S BUDGET 2020-2021 TEXAS GOVERNOR GREG ABBOTT Presented to the 86th Texas Legislature February 2019 G O V E R N O R G R E G A B B O T T February 5, 2019 The Honorable Dan Patrick, Lieutenant Governor The Honorable Dennis Bonnen, Speaker Members of Eighty-Sixth Legislature Texas is the envy of the nation. We lead the nation in job creation and boast the fastest-growing economy in America. The unemployment rate in Texas remains at an all-time historic low, while wages continue to rise. This economic success is shared by, and benefits, all Texans. I am especially proud that Texas leads the nation in jobs created by African-American business owners and Hispanic women business owners. The strength of our economy also reflects the diversity of our economy – from aerospace to cybersecurity, financial services to manufacturing, and Fortune 500 companies to small business and startups. You and your colleagues have laid the foundation for this success by passing the laws and appropriating the funds required to create, preserve, and expand the environment for a robust economy: low taxes; light, fair and efficient regulation; public safety; and a free and educated population and workforce. All of these efforts have been pursued while continuing to manage the state budget with proper fiscal constraint and stewardship. Those values that brought us here are essential to carry forward. But there is more we must do. As we begin the 86th Legislative Session, we stand at the threshold of our past achievements and are presented with the opportunity and the duty to ensure that this unparalleled success continues for generations to come.

Mason, Betty J., The Texas Film Commission and Its Effect On Filmmaking in Texas. Master of Science (Radio/TV/Film), August, 1984, 103 pp., 2 tables, biblio- graphy, 68 titles. The Texas Film Commission has actively been in exist- ence since 1971, yet there has not been any published study that examines its history, how it functions, or its impact on the film industry in Texas. Using information gathered from magazine and newspaper articles, the State laws of Texas, letters from people associated with the Texas Film Commission, and interviews, this study explores these as- pects of the Film Commission. Texas has been popular as a filmmaking state since the early 1900's. It was through the interest of the State leg- islators that a film commission was established in Texas. Guidelines for the Texas Film Commission are described in the State Statutes of Texas. The goal of the Texas Film Commission is to encourage and promote both out-of-state and in-state production. It does receive assistance in promoting Texas as a filmmaking state from other State agencies, but is solely responsible for increasing Texas' popularity with filmmakers through marketing seminars and advertising campaigns.
