DRIPPING SPRINGS, TX - The U.S. Chamber of Commerce today announced its endorsement of candidate Mark “Tex” Teixeira for Texas’ 21st Congressional District at Oakwoods Public Market in Dripping Springs. The event was a stop on the Chamber’s Free Enterprise Express Opportunity Tour, a national six-week bus tour promoting free enterprise.
Teixeira was joined by Neil Bradley, Executive Vice President and Chief Policy Officer, as well as John Gonzales, Executive Director of Congressional and Public Affairs, at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. Susan Kimball, President, and Amanda Miyamoto, Vice President of Operations, of the Dripping Springs Chamber of Commerce were also in attendance.
The U.S. Chamber endorses candidates for federal office who will support policies that drive innovation, grow the economy, and create opportunities for American businesses and workers.
“The U.S. Chamber of Commerce enthusiastically endorsed Mark Teixeira for Texas’ 21st Congressional District. The son of a Navy veteran and a former professional baseball player, Mark knows determination and grit. He’ll bring these values to Congress to fight for Texas workers and businesses,” said Neil Bradley, Executive Vice President and Chief Policy Officer at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.
The national Free Enterprise Express Opportunity Tour is a six-week trip through 20 states and more than 50 events to make the case for free enterprise in communities across America and push back against growing support for government-directed economic policies that threaten economic freedom, opportunity, innovation, and growth.
The effort is part of a broader Chamber initiative, the New Fight for Free Enterprise, a multi-year effort to organize, mobilize, and make the case for free enterprise everywhere public opinion is shaped, public policy is made, and future generations learn what it takes for people and communities to thrive.
