Ag. Commissioner Candidate Sid Miller discusses Water


Last night, we attended an event where our endorsed candidate for Ag. Commissioner spoke.  Miller spoke in-depth on a variety of issues, but the discussion of water stood out.  We apologize for the rancid quality of the video, but lighting was terrible:



Highlights:

  • Miller would be the first Ag. Commissioner to make water his top priority.
  • Real oversight of the $8 billion voters approved in 2011 and '13; allowing merit, instead of cronyism, to guide allocation decisions.
  • The 83rd Lege reduced the Texas Water Development board membership to 3 from 6; all appointed by the Governor.
If you're interested in Miller's entire presentation, you can view it here, but the video quality isn't any better.
