Border, Cartels, and the Working Class: Steve Wright’s Blueprint for TX-35 (Ep. 175)

In this episode, I sit down with Steve Wright, Republican candidate for Texas Congressional District 35 and longtime law enforcement officer, to talk policy, priorities, and the future of Texas.

We dive into how his 30 years in Kern County, California shaped his views on crime, drug and human trafficking, and why he moved to Texas to push back against progressive policies he believes harm working families. Steve outlines his platform on border security, immigration reform that rewards those following the law, prosecuting cartels, and expanded resources for ICE investigations. We also cover veterans’ care, arming schools with trained security, Second Amendment concerns around red-flag laws, and the need for term limits and accountability in Congress.

From housing affordability and private equity’s impact to restoring trust in Social Security and rebuilding the middle class, this is a candid, working-class conversation about protecting Texas values and fixing Washington. We also talk redistricting, grassroots campaigning, and how Steve plans to reach new counties in the reshaped TX-35. He shares why he aligns with the Freedom Caucus on fiscal responsibility, why bipartisan governing still matters, and how to restore public safety, strengthen families, and uphold America’s founding principles—all while keeping government limited and accountable to the people.
