Franklin Industrial Foundation organizes to promote Franklin area industry
The Franklin Industrial Foundation Board has formed and seeks a Texas charter via Rep. Dan Kubiak. Once chartered, the nonprofit will buy sell lease or take options on land buildings and equipment to spur local industry while remaining funds at dissolution go to community groups. The group aims to reverse Franklin population decline, plans to compile county asset data and target industrial prospects, and hopes to network through state and national manufacturers associations.

Budget Reform Urged by Manufacturers Group
A position paper from the National Association of Manufacturers titled Federal Spending Out of Control urges tighter federal budgeting. It argues many programs fail, costs have doubled in a decade, and calls for program evaluation, an executive line-item veto, two-household budget splits, five year cost estimates, and stronger GAO reviews to curb uncontrollable spending and enforce disciplined limits on total outlays. It advocates annual expenditure hearings and a limit on spending to enforce a full employment budget concept.
