Senator Leticia Van de Putte Comments on the General Election

San Antonio, TX --Tonight, Senator Leticia Van de Putte issued the following statement:

Throughout this campaign and as the results came in tonight, I have been receiving calls
from business leaders concerned about the future of our state. Like Texas business
owners, and Texans across this entire state, I know that its time that politicians like Dan
Patrick put their toxic rhetoric to rest.

Texans want us to make smart business decisions: building our universities and
community colleges, and supporting our local neighborhood schools. They want roads,
not rhetoric; investments to help deliver water to their businesses, homes, farms and
ranches. They know Texans needs leaders who make smart business decisions for the
Lone Star state, by bringing the brightest minds at the table, regardless of political party.

Just put Texas first. Thats what my campaign for lieutenant governor is all about. Its
time to put good policy before bad politics.
