Endorsements
Governor Greg Abbott
“I endorse Kelly Hancock for Comptroller for many reasons; I will mention just three here.
“First, the new Comptroller has the daunting task to implement the largest day-one school choice program in America. Kelly Hancock brings the most experience and proven commitment to that cause. From serving as a school board member to voting – repeatedly – to pass school choice, Kelly knows far more about the school choice law than other candidates. That knowledge and experience will increase immediately in his new role as Chief Clerk of the Comptroller’s Office.
“Second, the Comptroller needs to know how business and finance works — in the state and at a business. Kelly chaired the Senate Business & Commerce Committee and served on the Senate Finance Committee for more than a decade. He passed a law to impose a state spending cap. He’s funded border security, cut property taxes, strengthened election integrity, and overhauled ERCOT. He has done more than just talk about cutting red tape; he passed laws that actually do it. He also built a successful family-run business from the ground up. He knows what it means to pay taxes, what it means to sign both the front and the back of a paycheck. He will be a guardian of the taxpayers for whom he works as well as the state finances he is charged to oversee.
“Third, I endorse Kelly Hancock because I want a candidate who will actually win the election, not someone who has already lost an election to a Democrat.”
