Ken Paxton has spent his career defending Texas's right to secure its own border — suing the federal government to keep the wall up, backing razor wire and buoys on the Rio Grande, and prosecuting cartels instead of protecting them. A sovereign nation controls who enters it.
James Talarico supports sanctuary policies and benefits for those who break our immigration laws, and wants to dismantle the border-security operations Texas put in place when Washington refused to act — shifting the costs of illegal immigration onto Texas workers, schools, and hospitals.
Paxton has led the fight against federal overreach — from unconstitutional vaccine mandates to job-killing EPA rules — because he believes your liberty does not come from Washington. Decisions should be made by families, communities, and states closest to the people they serve.
Talarico campaigns on a massive expansion of federal power — nationalizing healthcare, controlling energy production, and letting Washington bureaucrats set prices, wages, and curriculums. Every promise comes with a mandate, and every mandate comes with your tax bill.
Paxton defends the values that built this country — religious liberty for people of every faith, protections for the unborn and their mothers, fairness in women's sports, and parents' right to raise their children by their own convictions, not a government ideology.
Talarico pushes the far-left social agenda at every turn — abortion up to birth, boys in girls' sports, gender ideology in elementary classrooms, and punishing people of faith who object. Under his vision, dissent isn't debated; it's canceled.
Paxton has defended Texas's constitutional carry law in court and stood with law-abiding gun owners against every attempt to erode the Second Amendment, focusing enforcement on criminals and cartels instead of the millions of Texans who legally own firearms.
Talarico supports gun bans, red-flag confiscation schemes, and lawsuits designed to bankrupt firearm manufacturers — policies that leave ordinary families defenseless while doing nothing about the criminals who ignore every gun law on the books.
On every issue that matters — the border, the size of government, faith and family, and your right to defend yourself — the difference could not be clearer. Texas deserves a senator who will fight for liberty.
