Elect Evan Hunt

If you’re worried about Texas becoming California, maybe start by voting out the politicians who spent years inviting California company after California company to move here.

Since 2015, Texas has announced hundreds of corporate headquarters relocations, with California by far one of the biggest sources. Texas leaders didn’t hide the strategy. They marketed our low taxes, low regulation and business incentives to recruit them. And taxpayers helped finance it. Texas has offered companies grants, property-tax limitations and other incentives. The old Chapter 313 program alone has an estimated $23.8 billion in total gross tax benefits for companies over the life of existing agreements.

I know this growth firsthand. I moved back to Texas because Raytheon moved me to McKinney as part of its expansion here. I was part of that growth. And few places have experienced it like North Texas. Collin County grew from about 1.07 million people in 2020 to nearly 1.30 million in 2025, an increase of almost 22% in just five years.

I’m pro-business and pro-technology. Growth is good. But growth has to pay for growth.

When hundreds of thousands of people and billions of dollars of development arrive, infrastructure has to keep up: public schools, roads, police and first responders, water, the electric grid, hospitals, VA facilities and everything else growing communities need.

Data centers are a perfect example. Texas gives qualifying data centers sales-tax exemptions lasting 10 to 20 years, while some projects need only 20 or 40 qualifying jobs to meet the program’s job requirement. Meanwhile, ERCOT reported this year that more than 232,000 megawatts of large loads were seeking interconnection, and roughly 72% was from data centers.

Water isn’t unlimited either. Texas’ new state water plan projects the population growing from 34.2 million in 2030 to 52.3 million in 2080, while existing reliable water supplies are projected to decline about 10% over that period.

Companies don’t magically build all the roads, schools, water systems, hospitals and public infrastructure their growth requires. Communities and taxpayers shoulder much of that burden.

And here’s the bigger point: this isn’t fundamentally red versus blue. Population density doesn’t care which party you vote for. When millions of people live closer together, government has to function, and function well. There’s no pretending we can somehow avoid government programs and public investment when people need housing, roads, schools, water, power, public safety and healthcare infrastructure.

Republican leadership invited the growth and bragged about it. The problem isn’t that Texas grew. The problem is they failed to prepare Texas for the growth they worked so hard to bring here. And now, embarrassingly, they’re running on fixing the problems they helped create.

We had another fantastic hosted event last week in Wylie with Angie Carraway’s campaign. Thank you to everyone who came out!

With under 45 days to early voting, we’ve got a packed schedule between now and November 3, with new events being added all the time. Check out the Events section of our website at the link below and find one near you.

Can’t make it in person? Join our Virtual Town Hall next Wednesday.

This campaign is about more than winning an election. It’s about building community, giving everyone a voice, and putting Service before Self.

We all know our political system is broken. Too many politicians in both parties have become beholden to big money and special interests.

Here’s how we fix it:

1. END MID-CYCLE GERRYMANDERING
One redistricting per census. Keep counties, cities, and communities whole whenever reasonably possible.

2. BAN STOCK & CRYPTO TRADING ACROSS GOVERNMENT
No individual stock, securities, or crypto trading by members of Congress, senior executive officials, federal judges, or their spouses. Require blind trusts or diversified funds.

3. CLOSE THE REVOLVING DOOR
Five-year lobbying ban for former members of Congress and senior federal officials.

4. EXPOSE THE MONEY
Require disclosure of major political spending and its true funding sources, including money routed through corporations, nonprofits, shell companies, PACs, or cryptocurrency. Strengthen rules against coordination, straw donors, and foreign money.

5. END MASSIVE OMNIBUS BILLS
Require major spending bills to be considered separately and transparently, except in genuine emergencies.

Some reforms may require updating the Constitution. I support those too:

6. 12-YEAR CONGRESSIONAL TERM LIMITS
A maximum of 12 years of total service in Congress.

7. SUPREME COURT REFORM
18-year Supreme Court terms through constitutional reform, plus a binding and enforceable Code of Ethics.

8. OVERTURN CITIZENS UNITED
Amend the Constitution to restore the power of Congress and the states to set reasonable limits on money in politics.

Politicians shouldn’t choose their voters. Public office shouldn’t be a lifetime career. Government service shouldn’t be a stock-trading opportunity or a path to a lobbying payday.

These aren’t Democratic reforms or Republican reforms. They’re American reforms. We must make them before what’s broken in our system further twists our American soul.

Take BAC Congress

While Keith Self and the McKinney recall petitioners keep crying wolf over “Sharia law,” there is real evidence that the call is coming from inside the house.

Muslims make up only about 1% of U.S. adults. But it is true that Christianity and Islam are both proselytizing faiths, so some may perceive the growth of one as a threat to the influence of the other. That religious competition may be real, but it is not the same thing as a threat to American law or the Constitution.

Meanwhile, Pew’s 2026 survey of 3,592 U.S. adults found a deeper issue. 45% of Republicans and 62% of White evangelical Protestants said the Bible should have more influence than the will of the people when the two conflict. Separately, 27% of Republicans and 31% of White evangelical Protestants supported declaring Christianity the official religion of the United States.

Those numbers don’t mean all of these Americans reject the Constitution or want a theocracy. But they do demonstrate significant support, often with big money attached, for giving religious doctrine a formal role in government.

So if the concern is genuinely religious rule in America, the appropriate response isn’t fear of one particular faith. It’s vigilance toward ANY extremist movement seeking to put religious doctrine above democratic government, public education and constitutional rights.

Hunt County has embraced the truth, so it’s rightfully p**sed off.

Come November, Lord willing, we set it free. 🇺🇸

There’s a new trend going around: calling on people to “denounce” things. And make no mistake about it, it’s meant to keep us distracted and divided.

Denounce this group. Denounce that movement. Pass a resolution denouncing something. Demand everyone sit or stand while you’re denouncing it.

Keith Self is introducing a congressional resolution literally titled “Denouncing Sharia Law in the United States.” This is exactly the kind of political theater I’m talking about. The Constitution is already the supreme law of the land. No religious law, Islamic, Christian, Jewish or otherwise, supersedes it. And that same Constitution, with its separation of church and state and protection of religious liberty, protects every American.

So if I’m going to denounce anybody, it’s elected officials like Keith Self who ignore the Constitution they swore an oath to defend while wasting our time on weak-sauce, performative legislation that does nothing to help the American people.

We’ve all seen plenty of calls for Democrats to denounce the DSA. Meanwhile, the President has literally designated “Antifa” as a domestic terrorist organization, even though it’s a decentralized political movement, not a single national group.

So we’re supposed to denounce democratic socialism while treating anti-fascism itself like a criminal threat to our nation? I refuse to play that game, and I won’t be shoved into that us-vs.-them box. Criminalize violence, not ideology.

I’m certainly not DSA. I want strong borders and strong police, but I also want affordable healthcare and childcare. I want a strong military, but I also want a balanced budget, adherence to international law and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. I believe in free markets, but I also want to break up monopolies, protect competition and strengthen Social Security. I like our three-branch system of government as it is. I just want some meaningful checks and balances.

And even though I disagree with the DSA on many things, I understand that they want a better future where government actually works for regular people. My mother always said, “If you aim for the stars, you’re sure to hit the sky.” We can disagree strongly about how to get there without treating everyone outside our ideological lane as the enemy.

You want things worth denouncing? Denounce the out-of-control deficit. Needless trade wars. The undermining of the Voting Rights Act. Pandering to Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un. Unauthorized military action. Bombing schools and then trying to blame someone else. The deliberate blurring of church and state. The undermining of our public schools. Ridiculous taxpayer-funded Trump beautification projects. For-profit detention centers. AI and data centers running unchecked. Protesters being shot in the head or the back.

Join me in denouncing elected officials, like Keith Self, who still refuse to sign Thomas Massie’s bipartisan discharge petition to force action on the remaining Epstein files. So far, it has 79 signatures. Only TWO are Republicans.

Because we should ALL be able to loudly denounce failures of government, abuses of power and violations of the law. And when we disagree on policy or ideology, we should be willing to stand our ground and debate it publicly, not hide from debates and throw darts when the cameras are on.

Denounce this denouncement nonsense by liking and sharing this post.

Then denounce the politics of division and distraction at the ballot box in November. Early voting is October 19-30. Election Day is November 3.

In case we’ve forgotten what the Epstein files are about, it’s time to look again.

Straight out of a horror story, girls were transported to Epstein’s private island, Little St. James, where they were sexually exploited. One 15-year-old reportedly tried to escape by swimming away. She was caught and had her passport confiscated. These were children, most younger than my daughter.

Epstein ran an international sex-trafficking operation targeting underage girls. He didn’t act alone. Ghislaine Maxwell is serving 20 years for helping groom girls as young as 14.

Trump, Bondi and Patel promised transparency…right up until they got power.

Then came delay after delay. Trump called the controversy a “hoax” and fought forced disclosure. Trump targeted Massie and called MTG a “traitor.” Greene says Trump told her, “My friends will get hurt.”

But Massie and Ro Khanna went around House leadership with a discharge petition, reaching 217 signatures, ONE short. Then Democrat Adelita Grijalva won a special election promising to become #218.

But Speaker Mike Johnson waited FIFTY days to swear her in, while Florida Republicans had been sworn in just 24 hours after their special elections.

Once sworn in, Grijalva immediately signed, forcing the issue. The Epstein Files Transparency Act passed 427-1 and, under overwhelming pressure, Trump signed it.

DOJ says it collected 6+ million potentially responsive pages but released about 3.5 million, many heavily redacted. And after all those promises? ZERO major new prosecutions of Epstein’s alleged accomplices.

So Massie and Khanna are trying again. Epstein Files Transparency Act II would let victims and members of Congress sue to force compliance and help prosecutors get records. A new discharge petition was filed days ago.

Guess who hasn’t signed it?

Keith Self.

For somebody who talks so much about being “Texas Tough,” Self should have been one of the first Republicans standing with Massie, screaming from the rooftops, demanding others sign.

Justice delayed is justice denied.

We want to see the files. We want to see the trials.

MAGA learned they could get elected on a lie: be cruel enough to the undocumented and your rent goes down, your healthcare gets better, your job comes back. It didn’t happen, so now they’ve moved on to blaming Muslims. Meanwhile they’re not improving our healthcare system, rebuilding our failing infrastructure, or regulating the AI coming for your job. That’s the politics of blame and hate, and it’s all they have.
