I’m running for the U.S. Senate.
Billionaires have taken over Texas and taken over America — but together, we can take power back for working people.

Ken Paxton voted to fund government contracts with the company WatchGuard.
He then made $2.2 million off his investment in the company.
We’ve never been closer to taking our power back — but we’re still the underdogs in this fight.
We’re going up against a rigged system and a lot of money. We need all hands on deck.

University of Houston is FIRED UP for @JamesTalarico 👏
There is something deeply wrong with a political system that allows one trillionaire to buy his own personal U.S. Senator.

Q: Who have you voted for in the past?
Voter: I’ve voted for Donald Trump, I’ve voted for Greg Abbott. Republican my whole life.
Q: So why are you switching teams?
Voter: I am seeing what we need. This is what America needs. This is what Texas needs. We need someone like James Talarico.
Q: And you don’t think Ken Paxton can deliver?
Voter: Oh no, I don’t think so at all. I think he’s a criminal. And we don’t need someone like that representing Texas.

Neil Bush, brother of President George W. Bush, says he voted for James Talarico:
“My vote was motivated by two things: deep concern about Ken Paxton's record and genuine admiration for the character and principles I see in James Talarico…
I have been a Republican for most of my life, and I still believe deeply in many traditional Republican principles. But character matters more than party affiliation. Our democracy depends on leaders who respect our institutions, tell the truth, accept accountability, and seek to unite rather than divide.
Today, I voted against a style of politics that I believe has damaged our country. More importantly, I voted for the kind of character and leadership I hope will help heal it.”

James Talarico to Ken Paxton: I have accepted 4 local TV debates, but we haven't heard from you. If Fox news is where you'll be most comfortable, I'll be there.

.@jamestalarico: "Todos compartimos el mismo sueño: un hogar seguro, educación para nuestros hijos, jubilarnos algún día y pasar tiempo con los que amamos. Pero las cosas tienen que cambiar, y eso empieza con su voto para el Texas que merecemos."

.@JamesTalarico: The richest man in the world is coming after us — but it is nothing compared to people power.
Elon wants our land. He's already trying to buy one of our beautiful state parks down in South Texas. He wants our water for these AI data centers. He wants our taxpayer funds like when he ran that crazy DOGE process.
And he wants his very own personal United States senator — and that's what he thinks he can get with Ken Paxton.
