20-YEAR AIR FORCE VETERAN
From humble beginnings, Carlos De La Cruz was raised by a single mother in South Texas, where he learned the value of hard work, faith, and service. Those lessons shaped the man he is today: a proud Air Force veteran, small businessman, husband, father, and conservative Texan with deep San Antonio roots.

I'm the only candidate in this race who's actually been deployed to the southern border. As a twenty-year Air Force veteran, I've seen firsthand how the cartels exploit every weakness. We need to continue securing our border and ensure our Border Patrol agents have the tools, manpower, and support they deserve. As President Trump says, we welcome legal immigration, but we cannot allow criminals and cartels to take advantage of our country.

Washington elites and Joe Biden wrecked our economy. Families pay the price while lobbyists get rich. I was raised in Texas by a single mom, so I know what it takes to stretch a dollar and keep a roof over your family. My wife and I built our San Antonio business the same way, sweating payroll, watching every expense, and living within our means. That's common sense. That's Texas conservatism. I'll work alongside President Trump to bring back jobs, lower costs, and rebuild an economy that works for working families.

I'm a veteran, and my wife has served as a VA nurse practitioner. We've seen the best and worst of the VA. Veterans don't need another speech or another layer of bureaucracy. They need results. Fast care, no red tape, no excuses. I'll hold Washington to the promises it made to every man and woman who wore the uniform.

Washington is broken because too many politicians go there to serve themselves. I spent twenty years in the Air Force learning that you put the mission and your people ahead of yourself, and I'm bringing that discipline to Congress. Members of Congress should not be allowed to trade stocks while they write the laws that move the market, and I'll vote to ban it. I don't owe anything to the lobbyists or the party bosses. I answer to the people of Texas, and I'll fight to clean up the mess in Washington.

Carlos has spent a lifetime putting service before self. In Congress, he'll bring that same leadership, integrity, and Texas common sense to fight corruption and hold Washington accountable.

I've faced terrorists in the Middle East and cartels on the border, and I've always come out standing. I know a threat when I see one. The radical left is pushing its agenda on our kids and trying to silence anyone who disagrees. I'll always stand with parents, and I'll fight to keep biological men out of our daughters' sports. In Congress, I'll work alongside President Trump to defend faith, family, and freedom, and to give America's children the future they deserve.

Texas powers America, and I will fight to unleash our state's energy potential. Together with President Trump, I'll roll back radical green regulations and put Texans, not foreign dictators, in control of our energy future. Energy independence means lower prices, stronger national security, and more good-paying Texas jobs. That's what I'll deliver in Congress.

America is entering a new economic era, and Texas should lead it. I believe government's job is to clear obstacles, reward work, and let Americans build, so families can afford a home, raise their kids, and pass something on to the next generation.

Now, Carlos is stepping forward because he believes America needs more servant leaders and fewer corrupt politicians. He'll bring the discipline, integrity, and mission-first mindset he learned in the Air Force to Congress - fighting for working families, securing our border, standing with law enforcement and veterans, protecting parents' rights, unleashing American energy, and vote to ban members of Congress from trading stocks.

Texas farmers and ranchers feed America, and I'll always have their back. I will keep pressing to hold the Mexican government accountable and ensure they deliver the water they owe our agricultural communities. I'll cut red tape, stop foreign competitors from undercutting us, and remind Washington who puts food on American tables.

Our seniors worked hard and deserve to retire with dignity. They paid into Social Security and Medicare their entire lives, and those are promises Washington has to keep. I will defend Social Security and Medicare from the politicians and the wasteful spending that put these earned benefits at risk. Protecting our seniors will be one of my top priorities in Congress, so they can live with the security they've earned.

Artificial intelligence could transform medicine, manufacturing, and American competitiveness, and we cannot afford to lose the AI race to communist China. I'll fight to keep America in the lead by protecting our most advanced technology and powering it with Texas energy. Crypto and blockchain are part of that future too, and with clear, commonsense rules that protect consumers and keep innovation here at home, we can win. Texas should lead the way.

I've stared down terrorists and cartels, and I know what it takes to keep our communities safe. I will stand shoulder to shoulder with the brave men and women of law enforcement who risk their lives for us every day. While the radical left keeps attacking them, I'll make sure our officers have the resources they need to protect our families and restore law and order.

Public-record research limitation
This does not mean the candidate has no prior public service or record. A record attaches only after authoritative office history and a stable provider identity are established; names, titles, attendance, sponsorship, and inferred responsibility are insufficient.
Official filings may be amended after publication.
No federal total is attached because an exact FEC identity or current total did not pass all identity checks. Missing values are not zero.
Every profile claim points back to retained source evidence.
