If the federal government won’t protect Texas consumers, I will.
The job of the Attorney General is to uphold the rule of law, protect market competition, and keep predatory business practices in check.

Choice is a big matter here. And whether it's a Popeyes or a local food market, I'm glad people are advocating for their community and preferences.
