Steve Stockman’s vision for the United States Congress is rooted in faith, freedom, and accountability to the people. He believes government should serve, not control the citizens it represents. His mission is to restore common-sense leadership that protects constitutional rights, defends life, strengthens families, and promotes economic growth through lower taxes and fewer regulations. Guided by integrity and conviction, Steve is committed to ensuring that America remains a nation of opportunity, security, and faith-based values for generations to come.
“I don’t understand the debate in some Republican circles about personal liberties. Americans have rights that no foreign or domestic entity can take away. Those rights are enshrined in our state and national Constitutions. To think that someone —anyone—can wipe away your right to a trial, your right to your firearms, your right to free speech, or any other right by decree is anathema to freedom. I’ll stand up to the EPA, the FDA, even the PTA, to defend liberty to my last breath…” – Steve Stockman
