Ted Brown in 2026 TX Senatorial race

On Education: Tuition tax credits for school choice

A: Yes. I believe in school choice and competition between schools. I prefer tuition tax credits to vouchers, however.

On Abortion: No government between doctors & patients, including abortion

A: I don't want the government to get between doctors and patients, including abortion.

On Budget & Economy: Market-led recovery produces best result

A: No. If we had an actual free-market recovery with the government staying out of it, it would produce the best results for the economy.

On Civil Rights: Don't require hiring women & minorities

A: Businesses should hire who is most qualified for the job.

On Crime: Too many laws; concentrate on real crimes

A: I don't think it makes much difference. We have too many laws now. Police should concentrate on real crimes like murder, rape, robbery, fraud, etc.

On Drugs: Legalize marijuana

A: No. I want to completely legalize marijuana at the federal and state levels. Adults should be able to use it without government controls. Anyone ever convicted of a marijuana offense should have their record expunged. No one should ever have been arrested for a plant.

On Energy & Oil: Competition among oil, gas, wind, solar, and nuclear

A: I favor a free market in energy, where there is competition between oil and gas, wind, solar, hydroelectric, and nuclear. We probably need all of them.

On Environment: EPA and polluting both violate private property rights

A: I think the EPA violates private property rights, but I also believe that no one should be allowed to pollute someone else's property.

On Families & Children: Support rights, no matter their sexual preference

A: I support the individual rights of all Americans, no matter their sexual preference.

On Foreign Policy: Good relations with all nations

A: I am opposed to U. S. global military intervention, but I support free trade, diplomacy, and good relations with all nations.

On Free Trade: Repeal all Trump tariffs; no more tariffs by whim

A: Yes. Repeal all Trump tariffs and stop presidents from being able to impose tariffs by whim.

On Government Reform: Make voter registration easier, with voter ID

A: Yes, I'm opposed to the SAVE Act. People swearing they are U. S. citizens under penalty of perjury should be fine for registering to vote, and then they should show ID at the polls that they are actually that person.

On Gun Control: Strong 2nd Amendment supporter

A: I am a strong 2nd Amendment supporter. Only violent felons should be limited in gun ownership, but they should be in prison, so it shouldn't be an issue.

On Health Care: Repeal ObamaCare

A: No. Obama Care should be repealed.

On Homeland Security: Defense only; no international global military

A: We need the strongest military with the best weaponry to defend our nation, but we don't need an international global military that interferes in the affairs of other nations.

On Immigration: Pathway to citizenship for working immigrants

A: Yes, if they want to work on becoming citizens. I am most concerned with it being easier to come here legally, which is almost impossible now. We also don't need oppressive, violent, unnecessary immigration enforcement from ICE.

On Principles & Values: America founded on separation of church and state

A: No. America was founded on the separation of church and state.

On Social Security: Privatize Social Security for younger workers

A: Yes, for younger workers under 50. There will be far better returns from private investment.

On Tax Reform: Repeal income tax; abolish the IRS.

A: No. Repeal the federal income tax and abolish the IRS.

On War & Peace: No military involvement abroad; end Trump Iran War

A: Yes, I am anti-war and opposed to U. S. military involvement abroad, including the Trump Iran War.
