MARCH 9th UPDATE- Marc's residence in Austin County has been returned to District 10 by the latest judicially ordered District maps. Marc has chosen to withdraw and support four term Congressman Michael McCaul.  

I am a Christian family man that believes that our acknowledgement of God is critical to our success as a nation.  The government cannot tell us what type of religious belief we should follow.  It must not prohibit the practice of our individual beliefs.  This includes prayer in schools, courts, and public buildings and in legislative bodies.  My Christian character is witnessed by my 40 year marriage commitment to my wife.  If I make an oath, it is as a God fearing man. I am committed to doing what I say I will do. 

As a business manager and engineer, I know that high taxes are a job killer.  Deficit spending can only lead to higher taxes, so I will be committed to cutting spending and deficits to keep taxes as low as possible.  Best way to that end is reduce federal regulation and move government back to the state and local level.  We can and should leave a better future for our children and grandchildren.
