Texas State Representative, former middle school teacher, and Presbyterian seminarian running for the U.S. Senate to take power back for working people.
Pinned
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.

NEW: Talarico leads Allred by 6 points, 48% to 42%, despite facing a 28 point name ID deficit.

Without going up on air, Talarico was still able to surge 36 points in just 2 months, a feat attributable to a massive earned and social media presence.

SNAP cuts are hurting more than 3.5 million Texans.

So Team Talarico volunteers in San Antonio just packed over 16,800 lbs of food at the local food bank — equivalent to 13,480 meals!

We will always show up for our neighbors.

The line in Amarillo to see James Talarico 👀

Amarillo is one of the reddest towns in Texas.

But I showed up because our campaign is not writing off any community.

It was standing room only.

16 million children are about to go hungry because DC Republicans refuse to fund SNAP.

If they can spend $3 trillion on tax cuts for rich people, they can afford to feed hungry kids.

There’s a lot of fear in our country right now.

But Día de los Muertos reminds us that love casts out fear.

This is the Texas I know. This is the Texas we’re fighting for.

Congresswoman Julie Johnson: James Talarico is a skilled legislator, an incredible communicator, and has an unwavering compassion for the people of Texas… He is exactly what we need in the U.S. Senate

BREAKING: More than 100 Texas elected officials have endorsed our campaign for the US Senate.

I’m proud to have the trust and support of community leaders from every region in our state.

From El Paso to Beaumont, Texans are uniting to take on this broken political system.

Three men — Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, and Jeff Bezos — now own more wealth than 165 million Americans combined.

They own the media.
They own the algorithms.
They own politicians in both parties.

The system is rigged — but We the People can take it back.

James Talarico: I don’t see politics as left versus right. Billionaires are using their wealth to rig our political system. They own the media and they own politicians in both political parties. They’re using that wealth to divide us, and I think people are tired of being pitted against each other

Tariffs are ruining everything — including the Texas State Fair.

$14 for fried oreos.
$15 for a funnel cake chicken sandwich.
$25 for a turkey leg.

DC politicians are pricing Texans out of our own state fair.

James Talarico: There is something brewing in the state of Texas. There is a backlash growing against the extremism and the corruption that we've seen at all levels of government. We’re ready for a campaign that can bring us all together

Ken Paxton and John Cornyn claim to stand for freedom, family, and faith. 

But you can't stand for freedom and control women's bodies.

You can't stand for family and vote against paid family leave.

You can't stand for faith and sell out the poor to give tax cuts to the rich.

President Obama: There’s this young state rep, James Talarico… He’s terrific. Really talented young man.

Marc Maron: There is something grounded about him that you had too.

Obama: A guy like him, his starting point is ‘Let me say what I believe.’
