I’ve worked my family’s ranch growing up and continuously for the past 10+ years. Young farmers who work their family’s land, or who lease land, are still farmers. I reject my opponent's implications that young farmers are not farmers.
Press release graphic from Clayton Tucker for Texas Agriculture Commissioner over a photo of Tucker in a cowboy hat working with cattle on a ranch. The statement says Tucker grew up working on his family’s ranch and still works it today, argues that young farmers do not need to personally own the land they work to count as farmers, and responds to Nate Sheets’ challenge to his agricultural qualifications.

Texans shouldn't have to pay to be watched. While communities across Texas are pulling the plug on Flock cameras, Kyle voted to keep spending taxpayer dollars on this surveillance technology. Texans deserve privacy, transparency, and a say in how we're being tracked.
Graphic featuring a Caldwell-Hays Examiner headline reading, “Kyle officials cited in Urban Dictionary’s new definition for politicos loyal to warrantless state surveillance.” Below is an Urban Dictionary-style entry defining “Flock Bloc” as politicians who support police surveillance using Flock license plate-reading cameras. The graphic names Kyle Mayor Yvonne Flores-Cale and Councilwoman Melisa Medina and says they supported continued taxpayer spending on the technology. Photos of both officials appear at the bottom.
