AUSTIN\u00a0\u2013\u00a0Texas Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller today issued an historic invitation to two of America\u2019s most iconic financial institutions, the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME), to relocate to the Lone Star State, where freedom, opportunity, and enterprise are not just words, but a way of life.<\/p>\n

\u201cRecent events have cast serious doubt on New York City\u2019s commitment to the very principles that make America great\u2014free markets, business development, and prosperity through innovation and investment,\u201d said Commissioner Miller. \u201cThe same can be said for Chicago, where political hostility toward business has reached a fever pitch. The time has come for both Exchanges to consider a new venue consistent with their mission and the free-market spirit that built this country. There\u2019s no better home for business than right here in the great State of Texas.\u201d<\/p>\n

Miller emphasized that Texas stands apart from states that burden success and chase away opportunity.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn Texas, we don\u2019t punish success, we celebrate it,\u201d Miller said. \u201cWe don\u2019t look down on job creators or investors; we thank them for fueling prosperity. While other states pile on taxes and red tape, Texas stands firm on freedom, opportunity, and common sense. We believe in keeping government limited and money in the pockets of the hard-working folks who earned it.\u201d<\/p>\n

As Commissioner of Agriculture, Miller highlighted Texas\u2019 central role in the markets these exchanges serve every day.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom cattle to cotton, grain to energy, Texas feeds and fuels the world,\u201d Miller said. \u201cThe traders who keep those markets moving ought to be closer to the people and products that drive the American economy. That\u2019s why I\u2019m inviting the NYSE and CME to pack up their pits and trading floors and bring their operations to Texas, the home of enterprise, energy, and economic freedom.\u201d<\/p>\n

Miller stressed that his invitation complements the Texas Stock Exchange (TXSE), which is already positioning itself as a cornerstone of the nation\u2019s financial future.<\/p>\n

\u201cTogether, NYSE, CME, and TXSE could create a powerhouse of American finance, stretching from across the nation, connecting capital to commerce and investment to innovation,\u201d he said. \u201cThat\u2019s how we build an economy that strengthens farmers, ranchers, energy producers, and every American who believes in honest work and free enterprise.\u201d<\/p>\n

He closed with a message that underscored both pride and principle:<\/p>\n

\u201cHere in Texas, we don\u2019t just trade commodities\u2014we grow them, we ship them, and we make them better,\u201d Miller said. \u201cCome to a state that matches your values, your volume, and your vision. If you\u2019re tired of being villainized for creating opportunity, come to Texas. Let\u2019s make history together, not just in the markets, but in the marketplace of ideas that defines our great nation.\u201d<\/p>\n
