STATEMENT FROM UNITED REPUBLICANS
The Democrats tried to flip a Texas Senate seat blue before with Beto O’Rourke, and Texas voters rejected that agenda. Now they are back with James Talarico, a candidate who, in our view, represents many of the same policies and priorities that Texans have consistently opposed.
Many Texans have serious concerns about James Talarico’s positions on gender identity, abortion, faith, and the direction of our public institutions. These are not small issues. These are fundamental questions about values, leadership, and the future of our state.
If a candidate believes there are more than two genders, Texans deserve a clear explanation of that position. If a candidate claims that Christian teachings support abortion, Texans deserve to hear how that belief is reconciled with traditional biblical teachings and the value of protecting innocent life.
We believe the Democratic Party has increasingly moved away from the principles that built Texas into the strongest state in America. Instead of promoting strength, confidence, responsibility, and common sense, Democrats continue to embrace policies that many Texans view as out of touch with everyday families.
Meanwhile, President Donald J. Trump continues to demonstrate strength, resilience, and leadership under constant political attacks. Americans recognize clarity, conviction, and a willingness to fight for the country. They recognize leadership when they see it.
The choice before Texas is clear. Texans want secure borders, safe communities, strong families, economic opportunity, parental rights, religious freedom, and leaders who are not afraid to stand up for their beliefs.
Texas does not need confusion. Texas needs leadership.
Texas does not need political trends. Texas needs common sense.
Texas does not need weakness. Texas needs strength.
United Republicans will continue to stand for faith, family, freedom, law and order, and the constitutional principles that have made Texas and America exceptional.
