YOUR VOICE IS NOT
FOR SALE
A father, veteran, and lifelong East Texan running for U.S. House of Representatives to restore the people's voice, defend the Constitution, and end the era of career politicians in Texas' 5th Congressional District. It's time for leadership that puts Texans first, not big donors.
WHY I'M RUNNING
“People are struggling under the weight of too many taxes, too much government, and a growing sense our voices are no longer being heard by those elected to represent us. Congress is there to serve, not settle in. Together we will take back our seat in Washington and restore government of, by, and for the people.”
— Travis Edwards
Travis served as a U.S. Army combat medic during the global war on terrorism, learning firsthand about duty and sacrifice. He is proud to be a veteran of the 3rd Squadron, 7th Cavalry Regiment. After his military service, he earned a Master of Arts in Economics from the University of Kansas and a Bachelor of Science with Honors from the University of Texas at Tyler. His career spans medical, American manufacturing, economics education, and public policy research.
More recently, he’s been developing a chestnut orchard on his small family farm, raising goats and chickens, coaching youth sports, teaching Economics, and just completed a home he built himself. He is ready to go and fight for our way of life.
Travis lives in Athens with his wife Lindsey, a local medical provider for over ten years. Together they have three children and are building a life rooted in faith, family, and hard work. They are devout followers of Christ and members of Life Fellowship. Travis Edwards' diverse background, boots-on-the-ground approach, and steadfast dedication to truth make him a trusted and authentic new voice for us everyday Texans in Congress.
