Issue evidence — side by side

Recorded votes, documented positions and candidates’ own words are shown with sources. “In their own words” quotes a candidate on the topic without inferring a stance. Votes describe specific bills or motions; they do not establish overall support or opposition to a broad issue. A dash means our research has no evidence on that topic, not that the candidate has no position.

Research notes & limits

This is an open seat after Texas redrew its congressional map for 2026; incumbent Troy Nehls did not run in the redrawn 22nd District's primary. Neither nominee has published detailed federal policy positions. Nehls's campaign website did not load during biography research, so his military service rests on a 2020 news report that gives no rank history or dates.
