Ethics and Transparency
Mayes has been working tirelessly with Commissioners Court in Chambers County to pass ethics rules, which prohibit government officials from profiting off the taxpayer.
Immigration Enforcement
The security of our state, its citizens, and its economy should be our government’s #1 priority. We need to enforce immigration laws and secure our border.
Property Tax Relief
It is essential that we stop runaway growth in Texas’ property tax system, eventually abolishing such taxes, because Texans don’t need to be paying rent to the government.

Texas decisively secured its independence from Mexico on this day in 1836 when the Texian army defeated General Antonio López de Santa Anna's forces at the Battle of San Jacinto. The spirit of that day is still alive and well, but we must continue the fight to preserve our Texas values of life, liberty and property that our ancestors were willing to put absolutely everything on the line for on April 21, 1836. God Bless Texas!
Happy Birthday Texas.
When I walk where Crocket walked, or Bowie breathed his last Where they stayed and stood, as they could see, the Reaper riding fast That hallowed ground where Esparza, and young Espalier died That self-same soil where families knelt and new-made widows cried The place where heroes bodies burned, and Angels softly wept Where dear bought days meant Texas lived, while Santa Anna slept My eyes fill with tears of pride, my heart within me burns My thoughts, my dreams, and all I am, ever homeward turns To Texas! To Texas! Those patriots of Alamo were Texas’ Spartan band They gave their all so we could live, and love, in Freedom’s land Those Sacred walls, those cobble stones, and every open space Serve to mark where they last stood, and fell in God’s good Grace We owe these men to serve as well, to stand, and never quake To give our all for Freedom! If “all” is what it takes! To Travis, McCoy, and Dickinson, To Losoya, and all the rest We must pledge our Texan Hearts and Lives, and all that we love best! For Texas! For Texas! To gaze across the Trinity, from Anahuac on the Bay Where the first man died for Texas, but freedom won the day Patrick Jack and Travis, helpless both and bound, Muskets aimed at each man’s heart, staked out on the ground Called for Johnson to attack even if they fell To call the tyrant’s bluff, and send Bradburn straight to hell For Texas! For Texas! The time may come again, and soon, to heed the bugle call Remember then those bodies burned outside those hallowed walls Alamo! Goliad!, Coledo Creek!, let their mem’ry never fade; Yes! Remember every Texan, and the sacrifice they made! For Texas! For Texas! Those souls who rest in God’s strong arms look down at us today! Dare we say, “I’M TEXAN!”, if we give it all away? The freedom bought with Texan blood on the fields of Texas then Should be as dear to us today as it was to these brave men! The liberty so dearly bought, should be of no less worth Than its value was when their life’s blood watered Texas earth! So, steel your hearts, hone your blade, and keep your powder dry Those who walk this hallowed ground will once more hear the cry, FOR TEXAS! FOR TEXAS!!! Marvin Tyson.

If that is Sylvia and Hawthorne, you are embracing some subversive hombres. Remember Mayes, NO POLITICS!
