“We passed HJR 38, which I supported. HJR 38 gives the voters of Texas a choice in November’s election to vote on an amendment to the Texas Constitution to prohibit the legislature from imposing a tax on the net incomes of individuals. Texans do not want an income tax, nor should they have one.”- State Representative Kyle Biedermann

Read more“HB 1631, which I am a co-author of, was passed late last night by a large margin banning red light cameras. Red light cameras that are used to issue traffic tickets is a massive overreach by government, has shown no increase in safety, and is costly to taxpayers.

I will always support the 2nd amendment rights of Texans.”- State Representative Kyle Biedermann
