Summary
Paxton opens his "Protecting the Texas Promise" tour on Aug. 4 in Allen, rolling out an affordability agenda as the Texas Senate race enters the fall stretch.
The plan centers on tax deductions, including $50,000 for first-time homebuyers, $25,000 for out-of-pocket medical costs plus another $25,000 per dependent, and $5,000 for gym, nutrition and GLP-1 spending.
Three more stops follow this week in Houston, McAllen and San Antonio, giving Paxton a statewide platform to press an economic message aimed at voters focused on rising costs.
James Talarico, the Democratic nominee Paxton faces on Nov. 3, is also campaigning on affordability, but through higher taxes on billionaires and corporations, a $15 federal minimum wage and expanded tax credits.
