Michael Pratt
I am the most qualified to serve as U.S. Congressman for Texas Congressional District 38 because I’ve led, managed, and served—not just talked. I spent seven years on active duty as an Officer in the U. S. Marine Corps, learning discipline, accountability, and peace through strength. In the private sector, I have managed a multi-billion-dollar global business for a Fortune 80 technology company, balancing real budgets and delivering results. I am the only candidate who has been publicly elected! I serve on the Tomball Independent School District Board of Trustees and have been President (3x), lowering taxes while maintaining excellence. I’ve delivered conservative results in the USMC uniform, in business, and here in TX-38—results matter!
The two most pressing issues facing Texas Congressional District 38 are border management and the cost of living. On border security, I support strengthening enforcement of existing laws, ensuring the Border Patrol has the necessary resources, improving border infrastructure, and restoring policies that promote order, accountability, and humane treatment while reducing incentives for illegal immigration. To address cost-of-living, I will focus on fiscal responsibility, reducing wasteful spending, encouraging a balanced budget, and supporting a reliable, affordable energy mix that includes domestic oil, gas, and nuclear power, alongside regulatory reform and pro-growth tax policies so families can better afford food, fuel, and housing.
