Texas Tech System PAC

The Texas Tech System PAC is dedicated to advancing the legislative priorities of the Texas Tech University System and its universities through a unified voice and influence to our elected officials in Austin.

Recognizing Texas needs more nationally ranked public universities to fill high-paying jobs and spur economic growth, the Texas University Fund will establish an endowment, with no new taxes, to provide reliable funding for faculty, research, and graduate studies at rising universities with proven track records in research and innovation.

Who We Are

The Texas Tech System PAC is a coalition of friends and supporters who believe in the mission―and are dedicated to the important work―of the Texas Tech University System and its five universities.

As public institutions of higher education, the Texas Tech University System and each of its universities―Texas Tech University, Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center, Angelo State University, Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center El Paso, and Midwestern State University― depend on crucial state funding.

Our Priorities

Our Priorities

Every two years, the State of Texas goes through the appropriations process as part of its biennial budgeting. The funds from this process provide the Texas Tech University System with its funding from the state which is approximately 25% of the total TTU system budget. With this percentage continuing to decline it is critical that we use TECHPAC to support legislators who are addressing this issue and advocating for the Texas Tech University System and its five universities.

Raising Awareness & Contributions

The Texas Tech System PAC is working to raise awareness and contributions to support our state legislators and the work ahead. With the establishment of a new Board of Directors, we have ambitious fundraising goals and need your help in reaching them. While contributions are raised year-round, there’s a heightened focus to raise funds in advance of the next legislative session. Join us and give today to help us achieve our goals and support higher education in Texas.

Significant Investment

Over the past several legislative sessions, the Texas Tech University System has achieved tremendous political momentum, thanks to the work of the Texas Tech System PAC, system and university leadership, and our legislators. Many of the state’s top legislators have discussed the need for a significant investment of funding, directly benefiting the Texas Tech University System’s universities, and we know that initiative will be a huge focus for our coalition. We appreciate the work of our legislators to level the playing field and provide much-needed parity for higher education funding in Texas. The Texas Tech System PAC looks forward to continuing this momentum and appreciates your continued support as we work towards ensuring that our universities receive the funding they need to thrive.
