- "At the moment we have significant oil and natural gas reserves and we are therefore energy independent. We, in Texas, have enjoyed the success of fracking, but need to be concerned with improving the overall record of the industry. Continued Republican support for the use of oil and natural gas resources and development of renewable energy resources can pave the way for long-term energy independence. The best way to promote the development of renewable energy is through the private sector. In order to do this there should be tax incentives and research grants to businesses. Through a concerted, well developed Energy Policy, we can maintain our energy independence through any international crisis. The key to this continued success is a well formulated and focused effort by our Party." (www.cecilburtonjones.com)
- "There is a lingering question, should we support a zero emissions goal? Undeniably, we should, but letâs not let the Kyoto Protocols force us in a direction we are not prepared to take. Our goal of reaching zero emissions is definitely a long term commitment. It will take years to develop those technologies and continued, long-term efforts need to reach this lofty goal."

Building a wall should be part of an overall adjustment of our refugee policy to ensure an orderly and controlled pathway toward immigration." (www.cecilburtonjones.com)
