AUSTIN – Governor Greg Abbott today endorsed Giovanni Capriglione for re-election as State Representative of House District 98. Representative Capriglione played an important role in the passage of monumental property tax and school finance reform during the 86th Legislative Session, and has been an outspoken advocate on pro-life issues. In a statement, Governor Abbott thanked Representative Capriglione for his conservative leadership, and urged the people of Tarrant County to send him back to Austin.
“I am proud to endorse Representative Capriglione for re-election, and I am grateful for his example as a responsible steward of the Texas taxpayer,” said Governor Abbott. “The historic 86th Legislative Session would not have been possible without Representative Capriglione’s hard work and strong conservative voice. Thanks to Representative Capriglione’s determination to rein in property taxes, reform school finance, protect innocent life, and maximize freedom for all Texans, the Lone Star State continues to reach incredible heights. I urge the people of House District 98 to join me in supporting Representative Capriglione for re-election.”
