The Fort Bend Business Coalition (FBBC), an organization dedicated to promoting a pro-business environment throughout Fort Bend County, has endorsed candidates in the upcoming May 6th School Board elections in the following districts: Fort Bend ISD, Lamar Consolidated ISD, Katy ISD and Needville ISD.
The FBBC is a general purpose Political Action Committee (PAC) dedicated to supporting candidates regardless of their political affiliation who share and support the organization’s core values of creating a pro-business environment that assists in creating a prosperous and productive community for the citizens of Fort Bend County. To achieve a pro-business climate, the FBBC believes that business success is fostered through limited government, reasonable regulations, fair taxation, the rule of law and private property rights.
“A viable and progressive education system is vital to sustaining a prosperous community,” said Bill Jameson, Chair of the FBBC School Board Endorsement Committee. “Education is key for fostering success, and the FBBC is committed to doing our part to ensure that we have the right elected officials in office to keep Fort Bend one of the best communities to live, work and raise our children. We strongly believe that these candidates share our commitment and are proud to endorse them.”
