Rick Barnes, Tax Assessor-Collector

Congratulations to the winners of yesterday’s Texas Republican Primary Runoff Elections, and thank you to every candidate, voter, election worker, volunteer, and campaign team who participated in the process.

Running for office is not easy, nor is the work that goes into supporting campaigns and running elections. Public service matters, and everyone who stepped up and participated deserves our appreciation and respect.

Now we turn toward the November General Election. As Republicans, we must come together behind our nominees and continue working for responsible government, fiscal discipline, safe communities, and the conservative principles that keep Texas strong.

Congratulations to Secretary Brian Birdwell on his full U.S. Senate confirmation as Assistant Secretary of War for Sustainment.

Secretary Birdwell has long demonstrated principled leadership, unwavering service, and a deep commitment to our nation and the State of Texas. This appointment is well-deserved, and I am confident he will serve with distinction in this important role.

We wish him continued success in this next chapter of service.
