State Rep. Macias Awarded "Champion for Free Enterprise"
Texas Association of Business Releases Legislative Scorecard

Bulverde, TX - The Texas Association of Business (TAB) recently honored Representative Nathan Macias as a "Champion for Free Enterprise" in its biennial For the Record publication, which scores the performance of Texas lawmakers based on key business votes during the 2007 legislative session.

Of the 150 House members, Representative Macias and 22 others scored 90 or higher, and he was one of only 9 Representatives to receive a perfect score of 100.

"I have always held that our economy runs best when following the free enterprise model," said Macias. "I am proud of my record this past session in favor of keeping our economy vibrant and strong and I will continue working hard to ensure we build on the positive business climate in the Texas Hill Country and across the state."

"For the Record has been a reliable tool for TAB members who want to know who is responsible for the new laws that are impacting their businesses," said TAB President & CEO Bill Hammond. "Similarly, these business owners like to know who in the legislature they can count on in the future."

The 2007 TAB voting record and all previous versions are available on-line at www.txbiz.org under the "Resources" header.
