Texas RNC Committee Members back Michael Williams

Posted at: April 9, 2012

We have been friends of Michael for many years.  While he served on the Railroad  Commission regulating Texas’ oil and gas industry, we kept a keen eye on Michael and can tell you firsthand – he kept a close eye on your tax dollars, ensuring they were spent wisely and only when necessary.  He cut the size of the Railroad Commission and made it more efficient, doing more with less, even as oil and gas production skyrocketed in Texas.  And it is a rare thing to find a public servant who has never accepted a pay raise.  Michael Williams never did, in over a decade.

Rep. Jason Isaac Endorses Michael Williams for Congress

Posted at: April 3, 2012

Our campaign is honored today to announce the support of State Representative Jason Isaac.  

Representative Isaac represents HD45, which includes all of Hays County, a key block of voters in the 25th Congressional District.  His support will be vital to helping Michael Williams win this race.  Isaac joins a host  of conservative and Republican leaders in Hays County who have already thrown their support behind Michael, making Hays County a stronghold for our campaign.  

Rep. Isaac said of Michael:

“Michael is a principled leader and a consistent conservative. He understands the importance of getting government out of our lives in order to create a more free and prosperous country.  He embodies the values that we desperately need more of in Washington, D.C.
 
“Through his role on the Texas Railroad Commission, Michael Williams has effectively managed the oil and gas industries that are crucial to our state.  With his experience comes a keen understanding of the negative impact that overreaching federal policies have on our families and our economy.  He knows what it takes to get the federal government off our back and will fight for energy independence, fiscal responsibility, and job creation.
 
“I would be proud to have Michael represent my family and me in Washington and am honored to support him in his effort to serve the people of CD 25.”
 
Rep. Isaac was elected to the House in 2010 against all odds, handily defeating an entrenched incumbent Democrat despite being outspent more than 3-1.  
 
Michael Williams said, "Jason is a dynamic conservative leader and a true rising star in the conservative movement. We are cut from the same cloth: stand up for what is right no matter the cost, remember who you are and where you came from and never give up the fight. 
 
"Like me, Jason believes in thinking differently to find solutions to today's challenges.  He's not afraid of taking innovative approaches, even if unconventional to solve problems.  I'm proud to stand with Jason and I look forward to joining him in serving the great Texans of Hays County and working together to ensure a prosperous future for our great state."

Statement by Former Railroad Commissioner Michael Williams on the EPA’s Dismissal of Its Enforcement Action Against Range Resources

Posted at: March 30, 2012

Former Railroad Commissioner Michael Williams today issued the following statement regarding the settlement between the EPA and Range Resources dismissing all issues regarding the imminent and substantial endangerment order to protect drinking water in southern Parker County it filed in December 2010.

“I have maintained from the very beginning of this case that the EPA was once again overreaching and engaged in a purposeful witch hunt against Texas natural gas producers.  There was not then nor now, as EPA’s dismissal demonstrates, evidence that shows that Range Resources in any way harmed drinking water in Parker County.  Thank goodness, Range Resources had the financial resources and the courage to fight back when they were threatened with such an outlandish charge.  We all owe Range Resources a debt of gratitude.”
