Texas Gov. Greg Abbott spoke to Dallas business leaders Wednesday, calling for tax cuts and less red tape to help businesses thrive. NBC 5’s Ken Kalthoff heard from Democrats and a Black Chamber of Commerce leader concerned about the governor’s plans.

The reforms Abbott mentioned include state-standardized building permit regulations instead of individual cities setting regulations and standards.

“It’s far better to have only one permitting process that you know you can comply with that will dramatically lower the cost of doing business,” he said.“We definitely want to look into what that massive undertone really indicates in policy,” Blair said. “So as we talk about access to everyone, think about all the department heads across the state that are now not focused on DEI or diversity in any way or equity, which is really what we’re trying to get to in our society,” Blair said.
