Governor Abbott delivers 2025 State of the State address to Texas residents

Governor Abbott Appoints Judge Lee Harris to Waco’s 10th Court of Appeals

Texas – Good evening to members of the Texas Senate and House, Speaker Burrows, state officials, members of the judiciary, First Lady Cecilia Abbott, and to my fellow Texans.

We love our state. It means something to be a Texan. No state offers the opportunity that Texas provides. Businesses like Arnold Oil Company have seized that opportunity. Tonight, I’m at their headquarters in Austin. It’s an 85-year-old family business. They supply auto products, lubricants, power equipment, and much more. Jim Arnold says they supply anyone with a wrench in their hand.

The Texas economy is thriving because of Arnold Oil and thousands of businesses like it.

Texas is the most powerful economy in America. Ranked as the best state for doing business for 20 years, Texas is No. 1 for the most new jobs, No. 1 for economic development, and No. 1 as the best state to start a new business.

Texas is the blueprint for America’s future. We rank No. 1 for technology and innovation and No. 1 for semiconductors that power the things you use every day. We created a Space Commission to boost space exploration in Texas, from NASA, to SpaceX, to Blue Origin, and beyond. And we added new business courts that swiftly deal with complex business litigation. Business is booming so much that we now have our own stock exchange, the Texas Stock Exchange. It will make Texas the financial capital of America.

Clearly, God has blessed Texas, and the state of our state has never been better…”
