| Collapse all
- Secure our border. Protect our families. Texas is being failed by Washington. As a father who faced a kidnapping extortion attempt, I know the cost of a weak border and soft-on-crime policies. I’ll fight to finish the wall, stop illegal immigration, back the Blue without apology, and put Texans’ safety above D.C. politics. Our families deserve real security—not excuses.
- Defend Texas jobs, Texas energy, and Texas freedom. Texas powers America, and I’ll push back hard on federal overreach that threatens our economy. I’ll stand with our oil & gas workers, cut red tape, and stop D.C. bureaucrats from killing jobs with endless regulations. As someone who has served Texas businesses for decades, I’ll fight to keep Texas the strongest economy in the nation.
- A proven conservative who will shake up Washington. Texans don’t want another politician—they want someone who’ll stand up to the D.C. establishment. I’ve spent decades serving Texas, defending conservative values, and building strong ties between our state and America’s allies. As a Houston homeowner and proud Texan, I’ll bring accountability, common sense, and backbone to Congress.
