Dallas Hosts Historic Republican Convention Defying Midterm Headwinds

Dallas stands ready to become the center of the political universe. Republicans from across America are heading to the great state of Texas for the first-ever Republican Convention. Our mission is clear: defy history, grow our majorities, and continue America's conservative, commonsense revolution. This will not be a typical political convention. President Donald Trump announced this historic midterm convention in Dallas on Truth Social.

For two action-packed days, we will celebrate the results of President Trump's America First agenda. We plan to showcase Republican leaders carrying that momentum into November while making our case directly to voters. Most importantly, we will present a clear choice for America's future. That choice will be impossible to ignore. The GOP faces brutal midterm headwinds as Republicans paint the election as competition with communism.

In less than two years, President Trump and Republicans delivered lower taxes, a secure border, safer communities, and greater opportunity. Meanwhile, Democrats remain captive to radical socialists riding roughshod over values that make America great. The Department of Homeland Security touted millions of illegal immigrant departures as border crossings dropped 94% under Trump. Americans remember what happened the last time Democrats were in charge. They threw open our border, allowed dangerous criminals to pour into our country, put illegal immigrants ahead of citizens, and watched prices rise at the highest rate in 40 years.

They attacked parental rights, pushed the gender mutilation of children, weakened America abroad, and made life harder for working families. President Trump came back to clean up their mess. In less than two years, he delivered on promises made to the American people. Our border is secure now. Our economy is growing, manufacturing is returning to American soil, drug prices are falling, American energy is roaring back, and families keep more of what they earn.

Trump scored a major win as Congress passed a housing crackdown on Wall Street investors. Promises were made and promises kept. Now we take that record directly to the American people. In Dallas, families will explain what No Tax on Tips, No Tax on Overtime, and No Tax on Social Security mean for their paychecks. Parents will make the case for school choice and educational freedom. Small-business owners will show how Republican policies help Americans create jobs, buy homes, and build financial independence.

We will highlight Republicans' historic Working Families Tax Cuts, expanded relief for parents, and Trump Accounts that give the next generation a head start on the American Dream. We will show how President Trump delivered the largest drop in prescription drug prices in 60 years through TrumpRx and by taking on corporate middlemen. We will demonstrate how the $50 billion Rural Health Transformation Program protects patients and strengthens rural communities.

We will show how Republicans root out corruption, waste, fraud, and abuse in Washington. We will highlight efforts to defend parental rights, educational freedom, America's food supply, and President Trump's mission to Make America Healthy Again. We honor American workers by showing how lower taxes, energy dominance, fair trade, and reshoring put working people ahead of global elites.

We stand with law enforcement and the brave men and women protecting our border. Angel Parents will remind the country of the horrific human cost of Democrats' open-border policies. Removing criminal illegal immigrants is not extreme; it is the basic duty of a government that puts its citizens first. We celebrate President Trump's success in bringing more than 100 American hostages home without paying their captors a single dollar.

That represents true American strength. We will mark the 25th observance of September 11 alongside the children and families of first responders. We will also honor Charlie Kirk's extraordinary impact on young Americans while carrying his legacy forward with a clear call: stand up, speak out, vote and fight for the country we love. Republican candidates for the House, Senate and governor's offices will show voters that there is a better way. That is exactly what we are doing. The convention will culminate with the greatest messenger our party has ever had, the 45th and 47th President of the United States, Donald J. Trump. President Trump will lay out the stakes, celebrate the victories already secured and show America what remains possible with a Republican Congress standing beside him.
