Advocating for Communities Abandoned By Pete Sessions

For too long, the needs of rural communities in TX-17 have been treated as an afterthought in Washington. Under Pete Sessions’ leadership, deep cuts to the Department of Agriculture, Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Department of Education, and Department of Transportation have hit our small towns and rural areas the hardest—making it tougher to access healthcare, quality schools, safe roads, and essential farming support. Instead of standing up for everyday Texans, Pete Sessions has sided with special interest groups and billionaire mega donors, putting their profits over our people.J. Gordon Mitchell believes rural issues are not secondary issues—they’re at the heart of who we are as a district. That’s why he’ll fight for:

• Restoring and strengthening funding for the USDA, HHS, Education, and Transportation Departments so rural families get their fair share of federal resources.
• Investing in rural healthcare, schools, and infrastructure to ensure no community is left behind.
• Standing up to corporate lobbyists and the ultra-wealthy by prioritizing the voices of real constituents over big-money donors.
• Building partnerships with local leaders to create jobs, expand broadband access, and support family farms.

With J. Gordon Mitchell’s leadership, forgotten communities will finally have a champion who listens, cares, and delivers. He will ensure that every corner of TX-17 has a voice in Washington—no exceptions, no special interests, and no one left behind.
