John Cornyn

Sen. John Cornyn is introducing the Defeat Sharia in America Act, which says discrimination based on Sharia Law should be a Civil Rights Act Violation.

Sen. John Cornyn is seeking Texas Republicans’ nomination for a fifth term, in a contest that has seen bitter and expensive attacks on all sides. A new poll shows Texas Attorney General Paxton pulling away from Cornyn, but with no candidate leading by enough to avoid a runoff.

The survey findings released Monday come just eight days before the start of early voting.

The Democratic U.S. Senate candidates weighed in on everything from foreign policy and the recent U.S. military actions in Venezuela to healthcare costs and whether they'd support raising taxes on billionaires.

The two Republicans are competing in a heated primary. Cornyn accused Paxton of abusing his office and legal experts said the AG’s legal opinion is not binding.

Crockett had higher name recognition and an overwhelming edge among Black voters, while Talarico kept her margin to single digits through greater support among white and Latino voters.

Crockett sat down with KERA's Bekah Morr to discuss why she's running — and why now.

From the Texas battle for U.S. Senate to who's running to be the state's next governor, here are the key races — and candidates — to be watching as we head into 2026.

After weeks of speculation, Crockett officially filed to run Monday.

Paxton announced Wednesday he has filed the necessary paperwork to enter the 2026 race. The Republican first declared his intentions to run earlier this year.

Critics accuse Cornyn of capitulating to Democrats' gun control demands — even though the bill largely did not restrict gun owner's existing rights.

Texas’ senior senator outraised his foes across his campaign operation, though some of the money is ineligible to be transferred to his main account.
