Campaign website

Martinez's campaign website stated the following:

VETERANS​

The men and women who enlist into our armed services have given the utmost commitment to this country with the understanding that they may pay the ​ultimate price in the protection of our country. It is essential that we honor that level of devotion with the same allegiance to their care and benefits as veterans. They are the true patriots of this country, and in the State of Texas we will honor their service with the proper gratitude.

First Responders and Disaster Readiness

A robust plan of action for disaster relief and readiness is paramount for the state of Texas. We must equip our Fire Fighters and First Responders with the manpower, necessary tools, and technology to do their jobs effectively. Due to an increase in weather temperatures and rising sea levels along the Texas coastline, the frequency and severity of natural disasters will increase and have a greater impact on our infrastructure and our communities. We need to equip our Fire Fighters and First Responders properly, so that our citizens are not left vulnerable to the elements caused by these growing natural disasters.

Education

The funding for our children's education is a priority that we cannot undervalue. The desire for every parent is for their children to acquire a strong educational foundation, so that our children can compete effectively as they enter the corporate world. It is not impossible to provide our children with the necessary funding to develop a comprehensive approach to learning. We can do better at funding our Texas schoolchildren, because we can do better at funding our schools. Let's make this a priority and figure out a way together.

Energize Our Economics

In order for Texas to sustain our economic strength and leadership in energy, it is essential that we maintain the industries, communities, and more importantly the workers that have forged the success of our Texas economy for all these years. If we plan to sustain our leadership role into the future, we must also develop innovative strategies to diversify our energy options with emerging technologies. We can build a bridge into the future and ensure that we provide educational opportunities to secure career paths for our traditional workers, so that we always maintain the hard working ethics of that workforce, and that they benefit first from any gradual transition that's implemented.[2]
