Governor Greg Abbott highlighted the important role Houston plays in Texas’ robust economy and lauded the city’s globally-recognized success

Waco, TX – According to the state officials, Governor Greg Abbott addressed more than 225 stakeholders and businesses leaders.

Governor Greg Abbott also discussed his priorities for the 88th Legislative Session to continue laying the groundwork for entrepreneurs and businesses to succeed in Texas.

Governor Greg Abbott reportedly said:

“As home of the 2022 World Series Champions and recent hosts of the March Madness Final Four, Houston is the center of the world these days.

Businesses are coming to the Houston area in droves because the city has everything they want: a growing and diverse population, a world-class workforce educated by Tier 1 research universities, the world’s premier medical center, the Port of Houston, and the freedom and opportunity that people can’t find elsewhere.

Houston is among the top cities in the entire nation for corporate relocations and expansion projects. This session, we will continue building on that momentum by securing more economic development tools for Texas communities and businesses.”
