January 27, 2012 I traveled to Plano to attend Liberty Institute's dinner to celebrate the passage of Sonogram Bill. Liberty defends cases involving religion. They currently have 2 cases before the Supreme Court to defend freedom of religion. They were key in helping me write the Sonogram Bill so that it would withstand legal challenges. We won at the 5th Circuit, and our legislation is now law. |

December 07, 2011 There was another very special moment today when Ryan & I went to file for the ballot. Ryan worked for the Harris Co Republican Party 9 years ago. For 9 years he had been missing a special Bible. When he walked in today a staffer handed him a Bible & asked if it was his. It was that special Bible. It had been in a drawer in the desk he used for 9 years & no one realized it was his. That was a startling moment for sure. Then we opened the Bible. We had both forgotten that his grandfather, my dad, & his grandmother, Jan's mom, had signed it. My dad passed in 2002, and Jan's mom in 2005. For me it was as if we were all together again and they were letting us know they were also proud of him and looking down on this moment. It was really an amazing moment. |

Dan Patrick's "Senators Patrick and Whitmire at the Darrington Unit Seminary Convocation" album August 31, 2011 What a wonderful experience to be with my senate colleague John Whitmire as we celebrated the opening of the first and only accredited seminary in a Texas prison. Modeled after Angola prison (Louisiana), 39 inmates are beginning their studies at no expense to the state. It is completely funded by private donations. As has been experienced at Angola prison, it is my belief that changed hearts will benefit the prison employees, the inmates and their families as well as our communities. |

Dan Patrick's "Gov Perry signs Business Tax Break Bill Authored by Sen Patrick" album December 05, 2009 Perry signs tax cut bill for businesses Associated Press - June 16, 2009 7:05 PM ET HOUSTON (AP) - Gov. Rick Perry today signed a bill giving a tax break to about 40,000 small businesses in Texas. Perry signed the measure in Houston -- beneath the corrugated ceiling of AB Ladder. The bill extends a tax exemption to Texas business owners making up to $1 million in annual revenue. Under the previous law, only companies making less than $300,000 annually were exempt. The tax cut is estimated at $172 million over two years and goes into effect Jan. 1. Perry says the measure is part of the state's effort to stimulate job growth by helping employers hold on to more cash. Suzy Voss, who owns the business where the signing ceremony took place, says the extra money will go toward fixing damage to her 50-year old building from Hurricane Ike. The bill was supported by both Republicans and Democrats in the Legislature. |

Dan Patrick's "Thoughts from Dan about Hurricane Ike" album October 14, 2008 Texas is a Special Place One week after the storm hit I surveyed the coastal areas from 200 ft. I had seen the pictures and video on television, but seeing the damage first hand brought home just how much people lost in the storm. I spent most nights driving our district, checking actual power outages compared to the CenterPoint maps and reporting back to them the next day. I worked each day responding to requests from Mayors, Superintendents, House Reps and the people of district 7 trying to solve their issues. I was only one person. But, I was fortunate to have the help of so many dedicated elected officials, public servants and an army of citizen volunteers to help address the needs of our district and our county. My first priority after the storm was to contact all of our district leaders and see how our office could help them. I also wanted to be sure that we had ice, water, food and fuel pushed into our area as soon as possible. With the help of many, we distributed the much needed supplies to thousands during the first week through area PODs. My next focus was to work with CenterPoint to get the power back to everyone just as quickly as possible. I know many of you were frustrated that your power took 10 days to 2 weeks. Our area was hit hard as winds blew down over 1000 trees. The power company did their best, but with more planning I believe we can do better in the future. Every MUD district, nursing home and gas station should have generators. Pharmacies and grocery stores should consider placing generators in key locations. If these private and public sector customers had self generated power, CenterPoint could more quickly focus on getting to areas of homes where the damage was heavy. I intend to pursue all of these issues. The NY Times recently printed an article saying how lucky we were that the eye moved over to east Galveston as the storm shifted in the last few hours. The movement caused a 20 ft surge in Chambers County and caused much of this damage. However,the move saved thousands of lives as the 20 ft surge did not hit Galveston and the ship channel as all experts had predicted just hours before the storm hit. In our district, and all across Harris and surrounding counties, lives were disrupted for weeks as power, and in some areas water, was lost. I will work to make recovery move even faster after future disasters. In the end, I want to thank the citizens, who were the real leaders of the recovery. Neighbors cut up fallen trees, helped neighbors, shared what they had with others, and showed the country what the Texas spirit is all about. All of us who lived through this experience will never forget the roar of the wind, the darkness of so many nights. the whirr of the generators and the generosity of so many willing to help us. We will all have our stories to tell for years to come. All of us will have learned lessons from Ike and we will be that much better prepared in the future. Despite the many disruptions to the lives of the people of district 7, we were blessed. Most of us have our homes, our businesses and our lives intact. I'm grateful for that and know you are as well. It is an honor to serve the people of district 7 and the great state of Texas. Texas really is a special place---it's the people who make us special. Dan Patrick |

Dan has been a strong voice and a lightning bolt of inspiration in the State Senate. He not only lives and leads from his conservative values, he can articulate them with a clarity that changes minds. He has tirelessly worked to keep Texas moving toward less government spending and more freedom for our citizens. He was a prime mover behind the tax cut we recently extended to 40,000 small businesses in Texas. Dan is a man of principle that I am grateful to consider an ally and proud to call my friend.
Rick Perry, Governor
