Paul Rojas’ 21 Promises for Texas’ 21st
Break the Cycle. Build the Future. Deliver Results.
1. Term Limits and Age Limits
Washington was never meant to be a retirement plan.
We need public servants, not lifers.
If you have been there longer than most Texans have been alive, it is time to pass the torch.
Government needs new blood, new ideas, and people who still remember what a paycheck feels like.
2. End Insider Trading in Congress
If you make the laws, you do not get to trade on them.
No more stock tips from committee meetings.
No more family portfolios built on inside information.
Congress should serve the people, not the market.
3. Secure the Border and Crush the Cartels
The border is not a debate. It is a duty.
We will finish the wall where needed, arm our agents with technology that works, and take the fight straight to the cartels.
We will back our sheriffs, our tribes, and every Texan who defends this line.
No excuses. Just results.
4. Refund and Respect Law Enforcement
If a city defunds police, it loses federal money. Plain and simple.
Our cops, firefighters, and first responders deserve respect, better pay, and real mental health support.
Safe streets start with strong heroes.
5. Protect Texas Land and Water
Developers and bureaucrats want to pave over the Hill Country.
Not on my watch.
We will guard our land, our aquifers, and our open spaces so our kids inherit more than concrete and bills.
6. Balanced Budgets and Fiscal Discipline
Washington spends like a teenager with a credit card.
We will force a balanced budget, cut the waste, and end the pork.
If Congress wants to raise taxes, they can start by cutting their own perks first.
7. Tax Foreign Remittances
Billions leave our borders untaxed every year.
We will put a 20 percent tax on money sent abroad and use it to fix roads, care for veterans, and fund our police.
America’s dollars should build America.
8. American Jobs First
If a company ships jobs overseas, it loses its tax breaks.
If it hires Americans, it gets rewarded.
We will stop the cheap labor scams and the artificial intelligence layoffs.
The backbone of this country is the worker, not the shareholder.
9. Build and Innovate in America
No more dependence on China.
We will bring manufacturing home; firearms, semiconductors, clean technology made by American hands on Texas soil.
When we build it here, we own our future.
10. Rein in the ATF and Federal Overreach
Law abiding gun owners are not the enemy.
We will roll back the red tape, limit the ATF’s power, and protect the Second Amendment in full.
Texans do not need Washington’s permission to defend themselves.
11. Secure and Modernize Schools
Kids deserve safety and learning, not politics.
We will fund school officers, restore discipline, teach civics, and give parents a real voice.
Education should serve families, not bureaucrats.
12. Constitutional Government
The Constitution draws the lines. I am here to enforce them.
We will end unconstitutional mandates, shut down rogue agencies, and send power back to the states where it belongs.
If a bill grows government, I vote no.
13. Digital Bill of Rights
Freedom does not stop at the screen.
Your data, your speech, your digital property; it all belongs to you.
No censorship dressed up as safety.
No government backdoors.
No blacklists without due process.
The Constitution applies online too.
14. End Wasteful Foreign Aid
We are done sending billions overseas while our people struggle.
Every foreign aid dollar gets audited.
If it does not make America stronger, it does not get funded.
15. Energy and Water Independence
Texas powers America, and we are going to keep it that way.
We will back oil, gas, nuclear energy, and new desalination technology so the lights stay on and the taps stay full.
Self reliance is freedom.
16. Stand with Farmers and Ranchers
Our farmers feed the world, and Wall Street is trying to own their seeds.
Not happening.
We will protect family land, stop foreign buyouts, and end GMO monopolies.
Food should belong to the people who grow it, not to a lawyer in New York.
17. Veterans and First Responders
They served us. Now we serve them.
We will expand local VA care, crush the red tape, and deliver mental health support that works.
No hero should fight the government they once defended.
18. Empower Tribal Nations
Tribal communities deserve partnership, not pity.
We will give tribal police equal authority, strengthen sovereignty, and open the door to new industry.
Respect means opportunity.
19. Fix Student Debt and Education
College should not mean lifelong debt.
We will cap loan interest, fix the broken aid system, and elevate the trades alongside the degrees.
Education should build futures, not trap them.
20. Protect Texas from Resource Hungry Data Centers
Innovation is great until it drains our water and power.
We will require impact studies, conservation plans, and local limits.
Big Tech does not get to dry out Texas.
21. Transparency and Accountability
If Washington spends your money, you have the right to see where it goes.
Budgets online. Lobbyist meetings public. No more backroom budgets.
Government works for you, not the other way around.
Twenty one promises. One purpose.
To break the cycle, build the future, and deliver results for Texas 21.
