Abstract

Joel Rodriguez took office in 2003 as La Salle County judge, the area?s chief administrative and judicial officer. The South Texas county had among the largest oil production increases in the booming Eagle Ford Shale from 2010 to 2013. The Eagle Ford is one of the most productive formations brought online with hydraulic fracturing technology. As a result of the boom, wages and employment have soared, but so have rents and food prices.
