In a political landscape where too many elected officials bend the knee to special interests and federal overlords, State Representative David Lowe stands as a beacon of what Texas representation should look like. The combat veteran and Texas First Pledge signer officially launched his re-election campaign for Texas House District 91, cementing his commitment to putting Texans first — not Washington bureaucrats, not corporate cronies, but the people who elected him.
Lowe’s announcement comes as no surprise to those who’ve watched him operate in Austin. Since taking office in January 2025, he’s been exactly what he promised — an unapologetic defender of Texas values who refuses to play the establishment’s games.
A Pledge Worth Keeping
When David Lowe signed the Texas First Pledge on December 12, 2023, he wasn’t just checking a box for political points. He was making a solemn commitment to prioritize the interests of Texas and its citizens above any other nation, state, or entity. That pledge — administered by the Texas Nationalist Movement’s Political Action Committee — requires something most politicians find impossible: backbone.
The pledge endorses the fundamental right of Texans to change, amend, or abolish their government. It supports advocating for legislation that could lead to a referendum on Texas independence. For Lowe, this isn’t abstract political theory. It’s about giving Texans the power to determine their own destiny.
“My voters elected me to demand transparency, restore fiscal discipline, and defend conservative values in Austin,” Lowe declared in his campaign announcement. “That mission has guided every decision I’ve made on the House floor and in committee.”
Walking the Walk
Talk is cheap in politics, but Lowe’s legislative record speaks louder than campaign promises. He’s been a thorn in the side of big-spending Republicans who think taxpayer money grows on trees. When the establishment pushed a bloated state budget, Lowe voted no. When they tried to hand out “Hollywood Handouts” through Senate Bill 22, Lowe called it what it was — wasteful spending that benefits coastal elites at Texas taxpayers’ expense.
His commitment to transparency has been equally unwavering. By demanding record votes, Lowe ensures that Texans can see exactly where their representatives stand. No hiding behind voice votes or backroom deals. Every politician’s position is on the record for all to see.
Defending Texas Children
While federal agencies push radical ideologies on our children, Lowe has stood firm in protecting Texas kids. He supported measures to keep sexually explicit content out of public school libraries — because parents, not bureaucrats, should decide what’s appropriate for their children. He backed legislation protecting parental rights, preventing their termination based on refusal to affirm transgender ideology.
This isn’t about being mean-spirited. It’s about recognizing that Texas families know what’s best for Texas children — not some federal department staffed by people who’ve never set foot in the Lone Star State.
The Anti-Establishment Fighter Texas Needs
Lowe’s background shaped the man who refuses to compromise on principle. Born in Dallas, adopted at a young age, and overcoming challenges like ADHD and dyslexia, he learned early that nothing worthwhile comes easy. His military service — four overseas tours including two combat deployments to Afghanistan — taught him what real sacrifice looks like.
After retiring from the Army in 2015, Lowe didn’t retreat to some comfortable corporate job. He worked in law enforcement, earned his degree, and stayed connected to the communities he serves. As a Christian, husband, and father of two, his values aren’t poll-tested talking points — they’re lived convictions.
“I will never compromise on my stand for you and your family,” Lowe declared. “I don’t make empty promises — I keep them. No deals. No backpedaling, just the truth.”
A Victory for Texas Sovereignty
Lowe’s 2024 primary runoff victory over longtime incumbent Stephanie Klick sent shockwaves through the Austin establishment. With 56.58% of the vote, Texans in District 91 chose principle over politics as usual. His grassroots campaign — knocking on over 12,000 doors — proved that when you take your message directly to the people, they respond.
That victory represented more than a changing of the guard. It was a clear signal that Texans are tired of representatives who pay lip service to conservative values while governing like Democrats.
Texas First, Always
Rep. Lowe understands something many politicians forget: he works for Texas, not Washington. His signing of the Texas First Pledge was a recognition that Texas sovereignty matters more than party politics or federal funding.
In an era when too many Texas politicians chase national headlines or federal dollars, Lowe keeps his focus where it belongs — on the people of House District 91 and the great State of Texas.
Looking Ahead
As Lowe gears up for 2026, his message remains consistent: Texas deserves representatives who will fight for Texas. No compromise. No apologies. No backing down when the pressure mounts.
“I am enthusiastic about continuing to serve and fight for the values House District 91 holds dear,” Lowe stated in his announcement.
For Texans who believe our state’s interests should come first, David Lowe’s re-election campaign represents more than just another political race. It’s about building a Texas government that actually governs for Texans — and takes seriously the possibility that we might be better off governing ourselves entirely.
The establishment won’t like it. The federal government certainly won’t approve. But as Lowe has proven time and again, he doesn’t work for them.
