He is a small town leader who serves his community through the principals of faith and freedom.

Immigration/Border Security
"Securing our southern border and halting illegal immigration in Texas must be our top priority. While border security is a federal responsibility, we must act as a state to secure as much as we can. In conjunction with a stronger presence on the border, we need to put our citizens first and turn off the magnets that drive further illegal immigration."

Education
"We will lose every one of our freedoms if we don’t teach our children their value and that begins with education. Coming from a family of teachers and as a former high school football coach myself, I understand the need to treat teachers like the professionals that they are. We need to empower them to teach instead of making them subservient to union bosses or government bureaucrats. We need to keep Common Core out of our schools and reform our testing system so we don’t have third graders who are so nervous they can’t sleep at night."

Budget/ The Economy
"As someone who is proud part of a family business, I know firsthand that government does not create jobs – people do. The path toward economic growth is just as simple: get government out of the way. This begins with lowering our tax burdens, shrinking the size of government, and rolling back regulations that create more problems than they solve."

States' Rights
"The 10th Amendment is crucial to our success as a free people in Texas. The federal government has grown grossly out of control and continues to exponentially expand its scope and reach. Texas needs fight back even harder against the bureaucrats in Washington."

Empower Texans
“Thomas McNutt is a bold champion for values and principles that Texans hold dear,” said TFR’s president, Michael Quinn Sullivan. “Thomas McNutt’s energy and excitement for good public policy is precisely what taxpayers are demanding. McNutt will fight against the cronyism and corruption that has infested the Texas House.”
