Billy Pierce
Libertarian Candidate for Harris County Tax Assessor
As our government becomes more and more partisan, Harris County will benefit from someone who is not caught up in arguments between Red and Blue, but instead focused on protecting the property and rights of our people.

I'm running because I care about my neighbors. I don't like seeing our government taking advantage of my friends and neighbors, taking them for granted, and pitting them against each other. As our government becomes more and more partisan, Harris County will benefit from someone not caught up in arguments between Red and Blue, but instead focused on protecting the property and rights of our people.
The Property Tax cannot be assessed objectively or fairly, especially during and after a pandemic. I will call for a freeze on appraisal increases until fair market value can be objectively determined. And while they are frozen, we'll work to reform the whole darn thing.
Austin continues to push Texas counties around, and centralize authority over counties in Texas. Austin doesn't always know what is best for Harris County, and they shouldn't give orders to our county without being challenged.
Taxation is Theft. And, until we can stop people from being taxed, it should be done accurately, fairly, at the minimum amount possible, and with the most representation possible.
