The battle for Texas Attorney General is heating up as four Republican heavyweights prepare to duke it out in the only scheduled primary debate, hosted by conservative champion Allie Beth Stuckey on BlazeTV. With less than three weeks until the March 3rd primary, this showdown could determine whether Texas continues its America First legal crusade or falls back into establishment hands.

The field includes current Rep. Chip Roy, a proven conservative warrior who's taken on everyone from Big Tech to the Deep State during his time in Congress. Roy faces off against State Senator Joan Huffman, businessman Mayes Middleton, and Aaron Reitz in what's shaping up to be a defining moment for Texas Republicans.

This race only exists because current AG Ken Paxton – the man who led the charge against Big Tech censorship and fought the Biden regime's lawless policies – decided to challenge RINO Senator John Cornyn instead of seeking re-election. Paxton's departure leaves massive shoes to fill for whoever wants to continue Texas's role as the tip of the spear in America's legal resistance to federal overreach.

Why This Matters for Every American

Texas isn't just another state – it's been the legal firewall protecting our constitutional rights while other states rolled over for federal tyranny. The next AG will inherit ongoing battles against Big Tech monopolies, illegal immigration, and whatever constitutional violations the next Democrat administration tries to pull.

Rep. Chip Roy brings serious conservative credentials to the table, having consistently voted against wasteful spending and stood firm against establishment Republicans who cave to Democrat demands. His congressional record shows he's not afraid to take the hard votes that separate real conservatives from the RINOs.

The debate, expertly moderated by Stuckey – one of conservative media's brightest stars – promises to cut through campaign BS and get to the heart of where these candidates really stand. Will they fight like Paxton did, or will they play nice with the Austin establishment?

Texas Patriots deserve to know: Who will stand up to federal overreach? Who will prosecute voter fraud? Who will take on the woke corporations trying to indoctrinate our kids?

Tune in to BlazeTV to watch these candidates answer the tough questions. The future of constitutional law enforcement may well depend on getting this choice right.

Roy isn't perfect but he's miles better than another RINO establishment pick. Time to drain the swamp in Austin too!

I met Chip Roy at a town hall last year and he really listened to our concerns about border security. We need someone who will actually enforce the law as AG.

Finally! Chip Roy has been one of the few congressmen actually fighting for conservative principles in DC. The establishment GOP needs to go - they've been selling us out for decades.

Couldn't agree more. Roy is one of the good ones who actually keeps his campaign promises.

Question - what's Roy's track record on election integrity? That's going to be huge for whoever wins the AG race.

He's been solid on that front, voted against certifying some of the 2020 results and has pushed for voter ID laws.
