Texas Land & Mineral Owners Association

The Texas Land & Mineral Owners Association (TLMA) advocates for common-sense laws and regulations that respect the private property rights of land and mineral owners while supporting a healthy oil and gas industry in Texas. TLMA provides a united voice for its members, advocating for their interests at the state legislature, the Railroad Commission of Texas, and in the courts. The association focuses on protecting surface and mineral ownership rights, reducing litigation, and safeguarding groundwater resources. TLMA is a nonpartisan association and does not contribute to political campaigns. Membership is open to individuals and entities with interests in Texas lands, offering opportunities to participate in direct contact with legislators and receive educational materials. The association actively seeks positive change and defends against the erosion of landowners' rights.
