Alisa Simmons voted against bulletproof vests AND pay raises for law enforcement. Now she’s lying about it to hide her anti-police record. See the facts here. 👇🏻
County Judge candidate Alisa Simmons told bold lies to the media and her followers about her record, which includes voting against additional pay and bullet proof vests for law enforcement. We have the receipts.

As Texas goes, so does our nation. The stakes have never been higher. The choice has never been clearer. In the coming days, Texans will rise, Republicans will unite, and our voices will be heard from every corner of the Lone Star State. This is our moment. This is our Texas. Let’s KEEP TEXAS RED! #txlege

What a shame!
Honoring Texas history at zero cost to taxpayers was too much for Alisa Simmons. She voted against accepting a plaque donated to Tarrant County of William B. Travis’s historic “Victory or Death” letter from The Alamo for display at the Old Courthouse. The plaque honors Texas heroes José Antonio Navarro and Juan Seguín. She only supports honoring history if she gets to add her progressive spin to it. This is who she is.

I'm paying bills today and I realized Republican leadership in Tarrant County cut our tax rate four years running while funding police and hospitals — and Alisa Simmons voted no, or didn't show up, nearly every time. Thank you, @TimothyOHare, @MattKrauseTX, @MannyRamirez_TX, @rbarnesGOP.

Republicans are working hard and working together all over Tarrant County this election. We have calling/texting parties, blockwalkers and volunteers all over the county working every day. This was yesterday with True Texas Project (@TrueTXProject) volunteers at Basin Headquarters. It is pedal to the metal through November 3rd!

Putting Tarrant County taxpayers first means responsible appraisal policy. This week, the Tarrant Appraisal District Board approved the appraisal plan for 2027 and 2028: Biennial residential appraisals beginning in 2027, aligned with the state's Property Value Study. Clear and convincing evidence required to support calculated market-value increases greater than 5%. The right to appeal every year—even in years when residential properties are not scheduled for reappraisal. The goal is straightforward: greater stability and predictability for property owners while ensuring TAD meets its responsibilities and our taxing entities have a reliable appraisal base.

Strong group of leaders in that pic.
What a night. 🔥 TCGOP just wrapped a fantastic training with our new Area Leaders — every one is on fire, committed to protecting their homes, their families, and their community from the socialist-infested Democratic Party. It's often said that the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing. Tonight, these good men and women proved they will NOT do nothing. They showed up. They stepped up. And they're ready to fight for Tarrant County. To every new area leader who stood up tonight: thank you. This is what standing up for your community looks like. 🇺🇸 Tarrant County GOP

“If you are celebrating a man’s death because of his politics, you have lost your sense of right and wrong.” *I borrowed this quote, but thought it was worth repeating.

THIS! 👇👇👇👇👇👇👇
American Preacher uses common sense to explain how far off track America has become “If you can get arrested for hunting and fishing without a license, but you can enter this country and remain in this country illegally, you got a country run by idiots If you have to get your parents' permission to go on a field trip and get an aspirin at school, but you don't have to get their permission to get an abortion, you got a country run by idiots If you must show identification to board an airplane and cash a check and check out a library book, But you don't have to show identification to vote in our elections. You got a nation run by a bunch of idiots If the government wants to prevent and they want to take our guns away and turn around and send F-16 fighter jets to our enemy countries, take our guns away and give ammunition to our enemy countries, you have a country run by idiots. — If your government believes the best way to eradicate trillions of dollars in debt is to spend more trillions of dollars in debt, you got a country run by idiots.”
