State Representative Matt Krause said, “Fort Worth continues to grow and prosper, and we must ensure that we have leadership in the state legislature focused on the priorities of our growing community: transportation, education, water, and more. Konni Burton has demonstrated a strong commitment to these commonsense, conservative priorities, and I stand with her in her campaign for reelection.”

“Arlington is one of the most dynamic communities in our state and has been well-served by the leadership of Konni Burton in the Texas Senate.
