UPDATE
I .S. SEN ATOR for TEXAS
142 Itl WII <*l ll( I III II DING
» ASHINGTOY II I 20510
Texans have a long tradition of pride in (heir state,
and recent government studies jonfirm our right to be
proud.
The state’s population grew by some 27 perceni in the
10-year period from 1970 to 1980, to a total ol
14,228,000 • compared to an II percent average growth
rale for the nation as a whole.
The Texas share of the national paycheck grew Iasi
year faster than any other stale’s, placing per capita
earnings in 1980 at S55 more than Ihc U S. average.
These figures prove whai we had already observed,
that Texas is experiencing rapid grow th in both population
and prosperity.
A recent study by two Texas A&M University
sociologists concluded Texas could surpass New York in its
population by 1990. “Texas can now be compared to a
giant magnet, drawing increasingly more people from
other regions and stales,” ihc A&M researchers noied.
These impressive gains are no accident. I he quality of
life in Texas is good enough to draw people and business
from more stagnani areas of Ihc couniry. And this quality
of life has been made possible by ihc friendly and
hardworking people of Texas, along wiih reasoned and
responsive stale and local governments.
Tor example, I have been impressed by the way our
governor and state legislature have reacted to cuts in
federal programs which feed money into ,tatc coffers.
While other siaics have complained loudly, 1 exas has
shown its self-reliant spirit and concern for the national
good by making the necessary adjustments at the state
level.
1 he balanced-budget approach of Texas slate
government has made for a fiscally sound treasury which is
able lo meet present needs without being hamstrung by
past budgetary indiscretions.
I he progressive attitude of both state government and
that of the cities in Texas has created a business climate
second to none. I have been impressed by the approach of
Texas cities to seeking new industry, but with an eye to
attracting businesses which will allow both city and
company to benefit from (he new site.
The management-labor climate in Texas also has
proved an asset in encouraging industrial expansion and
relocation. The growing personal income level for Icxans
illustrates the benefit to individual workers of Texas’ righl-
to-work approach to organized labor.
Our vast natural resources, and the willingness to use
them in a responsible way, also have coniribuied to our
growing prosperity.
In short, Texas has presented a good model to the rest
of the nation looking for ways to increase economic
activity and employment levels.
The next ten years will provide renewed challenges
and opportunities Providing necessary government
services to our growing population without onerous
taxation will call for careful planning
Keeping population levels and employment
opportunities increasing at about the same rate also will
challenge the ingenuity Texans historically have
demonstrated.
Bui I am confident 1 exans are more than capable of
handling any situation presented to them Texas will
continue to be a land of opportunity for its present and
future citizens.
