Rep. Rodney Anderson's campaign for the Texas Senate recently received the support of the fiscal watchdog group, Texans for Fiscal Responsibility! In their press release, TFR called Rep. Anderson "a bold, unapologetic conservative who will fight against the special interests, and champion the needs of Texas taxpayers."
"I could not be more honored to have the support of one of Texas' premier fiscal conservative organizations in Texans for Fiscal Responsibility. Their name says it all: that is our job to be fiscally responsible with our taxpayer dollars and I will continue doing so in the Texas Senate," said Rep. Rodney Anderson, a 2011 recipient of the "Taxpayer Champion" award given by TFR.
Below is the press release issued by Texans for Fiscal Responsibility announcing their endorsement of Rep. Rodney Anderson for Texas Senate.
Rodney Anderson was endorsed today in his run for the Texas Senate by Texans for Fiscal Responsibility. He is running for SD9, a seat currently held by retiring Sen. Chris Harris.

On the 2011 Fiscal Responsibility Index, Anderson had one of the highest scores and was awarded the “Taxpayer Champion Award” by Texans for Fiscal Responsibility.
