Governor-elect Greg Abbott addresses influential conservatives at the Texas Public Policy Foundation's legislative orientation at the Sheraton Austin Hotel in Austin, Texas, on Thursday, Jan. 8, 2015. Abbott was far less confrontational while listing his legislative priorities, sticking to campaign vows such as building roads and reducing business regulations. It was in stark contrast to incoming Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick, who vowed Thursday to make good on even his most fiercely conservative promises. (AP Photo/Austin American-Statesman, Laura Skelding)
