Crenshaw Failed Us
A career politician who broke his promises and turned his back on Texas conservatives
Dan Crenshaw: Broken Promises
When Dan Crenshaw first ran for Congress, he promised to be a conservative champion who would secure our border, defend our Second Amendment rights, and stand up for America First policies. Instead, he has repeatedly sided with the D.C. establishment, voting against the very principles he claimed to support.
Below is a record of Crenshaw's broken promises and betrayals of the conservative values he claimed to uphold. It's time for Texas to elect a representative who actually means what he says — Nick Tran, The Refined Savage.
