Gregory Wayne Abbott (born November 13, 1957) is an American lawyer and politician who currently serves as the 48th Governor of Texas. He was the 50th Attorney General of Texas and is a Republican.
Abbott was only the second Republican to serve as Attorney General of Texas since Reconstruction. Prior to assuming the office of attorney general, Abbott was a justice on the Texas Supreme Court, a position to which he was initially appointed in 1995 by then-Governor George W. Bush. He is noted outside the state of Texas for successfully advocating the right of the state of Texas to display the Ten Commandments in front of the Texas State Capitol in Austin in a 2005 United States Supreme Court case known as Van Orden v. Perry.
Abbott was born on November 13, 1957 in Wichita Falls, Texas of English descent. His mother, the former Doris Lechristia Jacks, was a homemaker, and his father, Calvin Roger Abbott, was a stockbroker and insurance agent. When he was six years old they moved to Longview and the family lived in the East Texas city for six years.
