He has actively campaigned alongside other prominent Texas-born actors such as Woody Harrelson, Dennis Quaid, Billy Bob Thornton, and Renée Zellweger, to push for increased film incentives in Texas.
McConaughey's deep connection to Texas is also evident in his career. He has starred in many films set in Texas, such as Lone Star, and films where his character embodies a distinctly Texan persona, such as Dazed and Confused. The actor rallying for flood victims further underscores his commitment to his home state.
