Working as a unified front on behalf of veterans throughout Texas, the TCVO represents over 35 veteran service organizations. Over the course of his tenure, the TCVO notably succeeded in passing a number of legislative bills through the Texas legislature, including a $2 scratch-off lottery system that has, since 2009, provided over $150 million to the Texas Fund for Veterans Assistance.

Additionally, Mr. Little contributed to the study of ciprofloxacin, which ultimately yielded a breakthrough in research and led to the drug’s approval by the FDA.
Before embarking upon his professional journey, Mr. Little studied agriculture at the University of Arizona, from which he earned a Bachelor of Science in 1964. Following this accomplishment, he graduated two years later with a Master of Science in animal science and biostatistics.
