STRENGTH IN UNITY

Ryan Nichols for Congress: My Platform for TX-01
As a U.S. Marine veteran, January 6th survivor, and proud Texan, I am committed to representing the people of TX-01 with unwavering dedication. My platform reflects the values of East Texas—faith, family, and freedom—while addressing the challenges facing our district. I will fight relentlessly for the little man, standing against RINOs and corporate elites to ensure our voices are heard in Washington. Below are my priorities:

​

Second Amendment Rights
The Constitution states that the right to bear arms "shall not be infringed." I will defend this fundamental freedom, ensuring citizens can protect themselves and their families without restriction.

​

Pro-Life Advocacy
Life begins at conception, and I will protect the unborn with steadfast conviction, supporting policies that uphold the sanctity of life at every stage.

​

American Jobs First
Our citizens deserve priority for good-paying jobs. I will work tirelessly to secure opportunities in manufacturing and other industries, revitalizing East Texas communities like Avinger and Lone Star, hit hard by closures such as U.S. Steel’s 4,000 job loss.

​

Top-Tier Healthcare Access
I will advocate for access to the best healthcare possible without government overreach, ensuring families receive quality care while maintaining personal freedom in medical decisions.

​

Secured Borders
Strong borders are essential to our sovereignty. I will support policies to stop illegal immigration, enhance border security, and keep our communities safe.

​

Thriving Economy
I will push for lower taxes, fewer regulations, and pro-business policies to lift every American, fostering economic growth and opportunity across TX-01, including revitalizing Highway 259 with small businesses.

​

Public School Funding
Public schools should serve our children effectively. I oppose school vouchers, ensuring our education system is fully funded to provide the best opportunities for East Texas students.

​

January 6th Due Process
As a J6 survivor, I have lived the injustice of government overreach. I will fight for fair civil trials and due process for every patriot targeted, ensuring justice and accountability.

​

Veterans’ Care and Support
Our veterans deserve better. I will advocate for improved VA services, addressing mental health crises and systemic failures, ensuring heroes are never turned away, as many have been in Shreveport.

​

Protecting East Texas Water Resources
I will work to stop Dallas from taking 22.8 billion gallons annually from Lake O’ the Pines, preserving our lakes, tourism, timber industry, and $20 million in annual economic impact for future generations.

​

Supporting East Texas Retail Workers and Business Owners
As an East Texas business owner, I understand the struggles of retail workers and small business owners. Retail workers face rising costs, with workers’ compensation premiums averaging $1,200 annually for small businesses, while owners grapple with operating expenses—43% cite this as their toughest challenge. I will fight for policies that reduce financial burdens, ensure access to capital, and address labor shortages, with only 92 workers per 100 jobs in Texas, so retail businesses can thrive and support our communities.

​

Combating Human Trafficking and Protecting Children
Human trafficking is a grave issue in Texas, with 1,080 cases reported in 2021, including 5,023 minors nationwide. I stand firmly against pedophilia, human trafficking, and any harm to children. I am a staunch opponent of child sex changes and child mutilation, and I will do everything in my power as a congressman to stop these practices and pursue legal action to hold accountable any doctors responsible. I will advocate for stronger laws, increased law enforcement resources, and comprehensive support for child victims to combat this crisis and protect our most vulnerable.

​

Grassroots Conservative Values
As a Christian, I am guided by faith, family, and freedom. I reject elite agendas, standing firm on the heart of America—values that define East Texas and our nation.

​

I cannot guarantee specific outcomes, but I pledge to fight tirelessly for these priorities, ensuring TX-01 is represented by a true advocate for the people, not the establishment.

 

Together, we will Make East Texas Great Again.
