We're calling 2026 "The Year of the Patriot" for good reason. With the nation's 250th birthday, plus midterm elections, two conferences, and all we have going on for the Texas Primary, we know True Texans are engaged and excited! The first of our Year of the Patriot conferences happens January 24 in The Woodlands, Texas, as we continue to build True Texan strength in the Houston area. If you're from the area, be sure to join in and bring friends. If you're not from the area, make the trip and support this crucial area of our great state! Either way, this conference is packed with expert speakers on timely topics you're gonna want to hear. We're covering H1B visas, immigration, remigration, property taxes, and the Islamization of Texas, among other things! Plus we'll have a candidate meet-n-greet during the lunch hour, and your meal is included. All this is packed into one great day that ends on a lighter note: a comedy show from Brad Stine! As you can see, we've got it all! And the best part is you'll be surrounded by the best patriots Texas has to offer. Iron sharpens iron, so this is the place to be.

12:30-1:20pm -
H1B Visas: Replacing the White Collar Middle Class - A discussion on the pros and cons of H-1B Visas. Who do they go to? How? Why? Are they good or bad? How do they affect the American workforce and economy? This conversation is led by Noah Wall of the State Leadership Institute.
ICE, ICE, Baby - ICE raids are all over the news. Hear the real story from a real agent. What's going on, and how can citizens help?

What If The Worst Happens? - Every day we learn of random acts of violence, unexpected weather, and political clashes. It can leave us fearful and uncertain, but situational awareness, readiness, and response is every citizen's responsibility. Mike Shelby of Forward Observer is a former military intelligence analyst who talks about the importance of community networking.
Eliminate Property Tax - Property taxes are out of control. Lots of politicians say they will or have fixed it, but nothing changes.

Bill Peacock of Texas Public Policy Foundation and Andrew McVeigh of Texans For Fiscal Responsibility will break it all down for us.
2:30-3:20:
