Steve Stockman was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives on November 6, 2012, with a vision of limited government and strong support for American families, a robust national defense budget.Rep. Stockman serves the people of the 36th Congressional District of Texas, which was created as a result of the 2010 census and includes the counties of Chambers, Hardin, Jasper, Liberty, Newton, Orange, Polk, Tyler, and portions of southeastern Harris County.The district is home to NASA’s Johnson Space Center, the research and training facility for all manned space exploration and the location of the popular Mission Control Center. As a member of the House Committee on Science, Space and Technology, Rep. Stockman highlights the importance of a vigorous space exploration program and for keeping the U.S. at the forefront of space technology.
The district also contains the highest number per capita of oil and gas refineries and downstream petrochemical plants in the world. Rep. Stockman is working for commonsense regulatory relief for the nation’s oil and gas industries, which will lead to less dependence on foreign oil and more American jobs. The completion of the Keystone XL, for instance, will lead to the creation of tens of thousands of new employment opportunities.
A fierce defender of constitutional liberties, Rep. Stockman is a leader in defending the Second Amendment. He introduced the very first pro-gun bill in the House in 2013 (H.R. 35, to repeal federal gun free zones).
When the President threatened to bypass Congress and enact gun control through Executive Orders, Rep. Stockman introduced, along with Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky in the Senate, the “Restore the Constitution Act of 2013,” which would nullify any anti-gun orders.

I like Stockman. A lot of people think he’s a loon. For me, that is actually a selling point. I want someone to fight 100% for what is right, and not be afraid of what others may think. We are well past the time of half measures.
I’m all for this guy-—we need to unseat Cornyn.
Which is why he recently endorsed Lee Bright in SC to unseat Lindsey Graham…..Bright is not a half measures guy either...
The primaries are quickly approaching and folks need to know there's an alternative to Cornpone.
Me too. I sent him some last payday and will this payday.
