Governor Greg Abbott plans to hold a bill signing ceremony at the Texas Capitol on Wednesday, April 23, to establish the Texas DOGE Office, a new agency created during the 89th legislative session.
Abbott will be joined by Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick, Speaker Dustin Burrows, Senator Phil King, and Representative Giovanni Capriglione, who are key legislative supporters of the bill’s passage.
Business leaders such as Jeff Burdett, Texas State Director of the National Federation of Independent Business, and Glenn Hamer, President and CEO of the Texas Association of Business, will be in attendance.
The bill intends to highlight efforts in economic development, digital innovation, or another area to be specified by the DOGE acronym once officially announced.
The office is expected to work with both the public and private sectors to strengthen Texas’ competitive position in its designated area.
The signing ceremony will be held at the Texas Capitol in Austin, where Governor Abbott is expected to make remarks emphasizing the importance of the new office for the state’s future growth and leadership.
