PHILOSOPHY OF
ORGANIZATION

TTARA, a 501(c)(4), advocates a sound and equitable revenue and expenditure program for the State of Texas. Through TTARA, business leaders work for tax and spending policies that characterize a fiscally responsible government. This requires a balance between providing efficient services at the least cost to taxpayers and distributing the costs of government without placing an unfair tax burden on any segment of the economy.
