Travis County Leadership Announced
We are proud to announce the first members of the Michael Williams for Congress Travis County Leadership Team.
The team is made up of Travis County business leaders, current and former elected officials, GOP officials, Tea Party leaders, Republican Women, precinct chairmen, public personalities and every day central Texans who believe Michael Williams is the best candidate to represent Travis County in the U.S. Congress.
These Texans know that this is the most important election in our lifetime and we have to get it right. We must send genuine conservative leaders with a record of standing up to the liberals in Washington. Michael Williams is that leader and now is his time.
Michael has a record of actually making government smaller, doing more with less and standing firm on his principles when the pressure is on.

[Read More]Texas RNC Committee Members back Michael Williams
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.

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