Republicans for National Renewal

Republican Party

"Brandon Herrera is a 2nd Amendment absolutist who understands the meaning of the phrase “shall not be infringed” found in the Constitution. Herrera heeded the America First call to challenge notorious anti-Trump RINO Tony Gonzales in Texas’ 23rd congressional district in 2024, losing by a sliver after the establishment pulled out every dirty trick to protect Gonzales. Herrera is now coming back in 2026 to finish the job, and this time he will not be denied. Herrera is just the kind of fighter we need in Congress to drain the swamp and keep the MAGA revolution going for generations to come. Republican for National Renewal is proud to support Brandon Herrera for U.S. House in Texas’ 23rd congressional district."

America First Insight

"We are PROUD to be endorsing Brandon Herrera. We had a wonderful conversation with Brandon and we know he is the right guy for TX-23. The current incumbent has a D on our America First Scorecard. Brandon will be different. We are confident that he will stand up for America. Brandon will also be an invaluable asset on the fight on immigration and protecting the 2nd Amendment. Last cycle he lost the primary by less than 500 votes, while being massively outspent. The people want him in Congress. He will fight for keeping America, America. He will fight to keep the 2nd Amendment protected, and there is no one better suited for refitting (or defunding) the ATF than Mr.Herrera. He also understands the struggle the modern VA has, and will work to help fix it. Brandon Herrera is TEXAS FIRST, and AMERICA FIRST. He has our complete and total endorsement in TX-23!"
