The Pecan Valley Republican Women shared the following news release:
Our guest speaker is Robert Pratt, a radio news and commentary talk show airing weekdays, known as Pratt on Texas. He is very well briefed on all the current events in Texas, what has occurred in the last legislative session and the special called sessions in the Texas Legislature.
Some of the topics he might talk on would be:
- Appraisal increases do not have to equal tax increases
- The self-defeating arguments against school choice
- Which is best, Senate or House property tax relief plan?
- Celebrity lawyers hired for impeachment making it more of a “show”
- Texas House has abused its power to impeach irrespective of who is the target
A native-Texan, Robert Pratt is a former chairman of the Lubbock County Republican Party having administered two Primary Elections. He served as a board member and regional director for the Texas GOP county chairmen’s association (TRCCA) and was instrumental in passing election law reforms in the 2005 legislative session. He served for almost a decade as the party’s finance chairman and as long as president of the county Young Republicans club, with the club being named as the outstanding club in Texas under his leadership.
Reared on a cotton farm east of Floydada, Pratt’s career began at the age of 15 when he began selling business computer systems. He moved to Lubbock at 16 becoming a partner in a computer business which he built into the region’s leading business computer maintenance provider. Pratt served as an officer and president of the Data Processing Management Association (now AITP) in Lubbock for several years in the late 1980’s and early 1990’s. He has 15 years’ experience in marketing, sales management, and executive management in the technology services industry.
Since April of 2006, Pratt has been devoted full-time to Pratt on Texas, a radio news and commentary talk show airing weekdays.
We believe that coming to listen to Mr. Pratt will be a rewarding experience as he possesses vast knowledge of different subjects that are of interest to all.
