We need every vote to defend Texas.
Thank you @realDonaldTrump for your continued support of my campaign and always fighting for Texas.

Talarico is a FAR LEFT extremist
π¨ CAUGHT: James Talarico got hit with a Daily Wire hidden camera, and he admitted his TRANSGENDER policies have NOT changed.
Just days after telling Fox News he would oppose biological males in girlsβ sports when safety or fairness is at risk, he told a supposed supporter the opposite.
βThe way I fought for transgender kids in the legislature is how I will fight for them in the U.S. Senate.β
βMy position hasnβt changed.β
He even bragged about having βthe most inclusive policyβ of any candidate running.
Texas sees the game.
VOTE PAXTON.
Standing room only in Hutto in a packed event with our young Governor!
The enthusiasm on our side is off the charts as we are the greatest place to raise a family and have more economic freedom.
Starting tomorrow, thereβs only 5 days left of early voting. Letβs get it done!

These Great Patriots have my Complete and Total Endorsement β They will never let you down! President DONALD J. TRUMP

It was a joy to meet with the Limestone County Republican Party last week.
As I explained to them, we must defend Texas from the threat of communism. We must get out and vote our values.
Political violence should be condemned in all forms.
I am grateful to hear that Keith and his family are safe and for law enforcement responding swiftly to stop this threat.
I am grateful to the FBI and law enforcement for stopping this threat. My family and I are safe, and I remain focused on serving the people of Texasβ 3rd District.
Preserving our constitutional republic from radical Islam means accepting the costs that come with itβname-calling, threats, and worse.
Our Founders believed this country was worth the sacrifice. I served 25 years in the military because defending freedom was worth the sacrifice. This only strengthens my resolve. I will not back down. wfaa.com/article/news/crime/β¦
I was proud to vote for the One Big Beautiful Bill, which established Trump Accounts to help millions of American children begin building a stronger financial future.
I am proud to be endorsed by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.
I believe that America is best positioned when we adopt free-enterprise policies that encourage jobs and investments to fuel our economy. I will always stand as an ardent supporter of capitalism.
I am excited to welcome President Trump back to Waco, Texas where he kicked off his 2024 comeback campaign.
Central Texas is prepared to support our conservative agenda that promotes capitalism, a secure border, and protecting the American Dream.
JUST IN: President Trump will return to Texas during early voting next week. RNC officials confirm to @FOX4, Trump will have a rally in Lubbock and in Waco. Senate Candidate @KenPaxtonTX will be there. @FOX4 #TXSEN @FOX26Houston @fox7austin
TX-17!
When you vote Republican, remember you are voting for more money in your wallet, the protection of our Second Amendment, the rule of law, and preserving our Great American Dream.
I hope youβll join me today in ensuring America remains a beacon of freedom.
Go Vote!

NEW AD: James Talarico wants to set our way of life ablaze.
Talarico has declared war on Texas oil and Texas beef, and now he wants to burn our economy to the ground.
I am amazed at what @elonmusk introduced to us yesterday right here in Waco, TX.
I am proud to represent a district which promotes innovation and future technology. We may not have known it - but Back to the Future is already here!
