In the last quarter of 2013, exports grew faster than any time in the last three years, and since 2009 exports have added 1.6 million jobs to the economy. Texas has been the top exporting state for 12 consecutive years, accounting for nearly 18 percent of national exports. Roughly, one quarter of Texas manufacturing jobs depend on exports, and we are outpacing national export growth, with $279.7 billion in exports last year.
