Fiscal Responsibility Index

 

With the primary season quickly approaching TFR always wants to remind its subscribers and all Texas taxpayers of the free resource that we provide to assist in making decisions at the ballot box. Although TFR no longer makes endorsements, we continue to provide transparency to voters on how their representatives voted through the Fiscal Responsibility Index.

This index is a measure of how consistently lawmakers chose to vote for limited government and spend tax dollars responsibly. This produces a numerical value between 0-100 that correlates with letter grades in school. Those scoring over 90 receive A’s grades and are considered by TFR to be “Taxpayer Champions” by consistently voting in favor of the small government and for fiscally responsible policies. Below are our taxpayer champions of the 2021 87th legislative session for both the Texas House and Senate. These lawmakers deserve accolades for representing their districts with honor and integrity.
