David Van Os, 2006 Democratic Party Nominee for Texas Attorney General:
Dale Henry has lifetime of experience in the oil and gas industry. He is a genuine populist who believes government is supposed to work for the people. Dale Henry wants to make sure the Railroad Commission belongs to the people, not just the privileged few. Don’t be fooled by political opportunists. Dale Henry isn’t for sale. He’ll fight for the people’s interests. I’m glad to endorse Dale Henry for the Texas Railroad Commission.

I have known Dale Henry for 7 years and in that time have found him to be a genuine leader, one that will serve our state and Texas Democrats with conviction as our Railroad Commissioner. I believe Dale is the right man, with the right experience to take the lead on energy issues that will shape the future of our great state and that are why I lend him my full support in his campaign for Texas Railroad Commissioner.
