The state of Texas is not doing well, and I firmly believe that Governor Greg Abbott's repeated decisions have led to negative impacts on Texans. Promises of smaller government and the elimination of property tax remain unfulfilled. After three terms in office, it is time for Governor Abbott to answer for his decisions and to present his future plans for our state.

Democracy thrives on open debates where leaders discuss their policies, defend their past actions, and present their vision to the public. Hence, this petition requests Governor Abbott to participate in a fair and open debate with Doc Chambers, a Republican primary candidate. This debate would provide an invaluable opportunity for both candidates to detail how they plan to positively impact Texas if elected.

Governor Abbott's absence from such a forum would deny Texans the critical insights needed to make an informed decision. On the other hand, Doc Chambers can utilize this platform to present fresh ideas and challenge the status quo.

It's essential for both candidates to articulate their commitments. Texans deserve transparency and accountability. A debate ensures that the public can evaluate who truly aligns with the values and needs of our state.

Please sign this petition to urge Governor Abbott to engage in this essential democratic exercise. Together we can seek the transparency that we deserve and map a new, hopeful path for Texas.
