ODESSA, Texas — The Permian Strategic Partnership hosted a very special guest Friday, U.S. Senator from Texas John Cornyn.
Senator Cornyn stopped by PSP's 5th anniversary celebration luncheon.
He praised PSP's efforts in improving the Basin as a place to work and raise a family.
"We have incredible natural resources here and incredible companies and innovators who are producing those resources, not only for the benefit of the region or the state, but for the world," Senator Cornyn said. "But it requires workers and people who want to come here to work and participate in that, which means quality of life issues like healthcare, education [and] transportation. All of those are critical to success here."
Since its inception, PSP has committed $160 million to projects across the Basin. Which includes STEM programs, teacher certification and expanding healthcare in West Texas.
