What this office does
The Texas House of Representatives is one of the two chambers of the Texas Legislature (the other is the Texas Senate). Its members represent the 150 House districts across the state. With the Senate, the House writes Texas state law and passes the state budget; the two chambers must agree for a bill to reach the Governor. The House elects its own presiding officer, the Speaker. The Legislature meets in regular session every two years.

| How we count this | Texas lets a campaign raise through the candidate's own account and, separately, through a committee the state records as supporting them. We add them so the comparison answers the question a reader is actually asking. Money moved between the two is reported by both filings, so a combined figure can count a transfer twice — it is an upper bound, not a reconciled total.

| Their words | “My call to public service came from God's plan for me and my family. It was God's calling that led me to run for office and it is His call once again that brings me back.”Tom Oliverson Campaign Website – Home ↗ | “My top priority is to restore reproductive freedom, which includes the right to IVF and contraception. We just recently had a fifty-year precedent overturned with the Dobbs decision, and we are seeing states all over the nation attacking women's autonomy. My opponent is the author of the abortion ban in Texas, which provides no exception for rape or incest. I decided to run when I saw he went unchallenged in the last election cycle. Kate Cox's story, and many more like hers, have shown us how extreme the law truly is. Women wanting to grow their families are afraid to get pregnant in Texas, as they know they will likely be denied care if they have a miscarriage. My opponent is directly responsible for the loss of this basic human right, and he needs to be held accountable.”Brett4Texas campaign website (home page) ↗ |

Texas lets a campaign raise through the candidate's own account and, separately, through a committee the state records as supporting them.

The parts are listed so you can see what went into it.We searched the same 4 official registries for every candidate in this race on 28 July 2026 and found no adverse findings for any of them.
