As a parent, I know firsthand the love we have for our children. While we have many great schools in HD 121, not every family and not every child is fortunate enough to have real educational opportunities that can end generational poverty and transform lives.

To solve this, I believe that parents are the solution, not the problem.
We must empower parents to make the absolute best education decisions for their child – there is no one-size-fits-all school or environment, which is true even in my own home as we have pursued different educational opportunities for each of our kids.

I don’t know better than you. Especially when it comes to your child.

As your state representative, I will put parents in the driver’s seat and ensure that you are empowered to do what is right for your child’s education while ensuring we maintain strong public schools.

We can best support our public schools by making sure teachers are well-compensated and have the resources they need to meet the challenges and demands of the modern classroom.
We can, and must, do both!

Parents DO need to be in the driver seat, not school administrators. Some school district administrators feel they own the schools and picks and choose what they want to investigate and what not, what’s important and what’s not, the punishments as well. They are not consistent and are not fair across the board.

Dear Mr. LaHood, As a public school teacher in San Antonio, I would like to extend an invitation to visit my classroom of 35 tenth graders in one of the best districts. This overcrowding is a direct result of the ongoing funding crisis facing Texas public schools. Governor Abbott has delayed releasing critical education funding—billions that could benefit public schools—because it is being tied to the approval of a voucher system. The proposed vouchers threaten to divert already limited resources from public schools, which will only exacerbate the challenges we face, including large class sizes and a lack of resources. Many educators, including myself, believe that implementing such a system would further harm our schools and the students who rely on them. I would appreciate the opportunity to show you firsthand the impact of these funding delays and discuss how we can best support the future of public education in Texas.

Despite the best efforts of our Governor to secure our border, the decades of empty promises from Republicans in D.C. and the outright encouragement of lawlessness on our border by the Democrats have created a once-in-a-generation crisis that will define the future of our nation.

With our current crisis, every town is a border town.
Whether its increased crime, dangerous drugs like fentanyl flooding our streets, or horrific human trafficking, the chaos on our border threatens people and property across Texas.

The time for half-measures on solving our border crisis is over. Texas must lead to protect its people and their property.

As someone who has been deeply touched by the scourge of drugs and violent crime in our society, I am fully committed to protecting the residents of HD 121 and their property from the growing dangers of fentanyl and the organized crime gangs that are flooding our streets with it.

As your state representative, I will look to increase the criminal penalties for those who manufacture or traffic fentanyl and their accomplices.

We must also do more to stop the flow of this dangerous drug into our country through our southern border by empowering state law enforcement to do the job our federal government will not.

Over the last ten years, the Texas legislature has spent significant amounts of state tax dollars to buy-down local property taxes or provide larger exemptions. These tax swaps and exemptions, while well-intentioned, have not been enough to transform the lives of property owners in HD 121 and across Texas.

If you think enough has been done, let me just ask you: in the last ten years, have your property taxes risen faster than inflation? The answer is undoubtedly yes.

I am committed to take on and fix our broken, runaway system of property taxes and make it one of my top focuses until we get the job done.

First, the legislature came to Austin in 2023 with a historic $33 billion surplus. Property owners only saw about $12 billion of that in relief. That’s not good enough. I will not stop until we have completely bought-down local school property taxes, which account for about half of the average tax bill.

Second, our system of appraisal is largely responsible for what is happening to property owners and we must address it once and for all. I am tired of property owners being treated hostilely by their Appraisal District and the Appraisal Review Board… it’s time we directly elected these positions and applied political pressure to the appraisal process.

About Marc

Marc LaHood was born and raised in San Antonio, Texas. He graduated from Texas Military Institute, Trinity University, and Saint Mary’s University Law School in 2007. He primarily practices state and federal criminal defense and has represented clients across the great state of Texas.

In 2015, Marc met his future wife, Erica, and eldest daughter, Emily. They helped to heal his heart and soul and brought him back to the Church. The two were married in 2017. He adopted his eldest child, Emily, that same year.

The couple now has four children together, three of whom are under four. Ultimately, the love of his family and the desire to provide a safer, more prosperous future for them is at the core of Marc’s desire to serve in public office.

Marc believes that we are at a crisis point in our state and nation, and that now is the time for bold, unapologetic conservative leadership in government. We cannot afford to elect leaders any longer that are not prepared to take on the major issues of our times and are not prepared to defend and protect the America, and Texas, we love.

I Support Marc!

Issues

With the current crisis at the border, human trafficking has never been a more serious threat to our young boys and girls and women.

I will lead the charge to ensure that those who engage in human trafficking are not eligible for parole and have no opportunity to escape justice once in custody.

We must begin making examples. Our children and women are not for sale. We must smash these human trafficking operations at every turn.

As the father of a large family, I can tell you that the pain at HEB is real. Feeding my family has never been more expensive, energy has never been more expensive, and regular every day household items have never been more expensive.

And there’s a reason: runaway government spending. Texas must do everything it can to combat the rise of inflation on our people.

As your next State Representative, I will make addressing runaway inflation and our crisis at the checkout line a top focus. The American Dream shouldn’t be out of reach for American families.

Over the last ten years, the Texas legislature has spent significant amounts of state tax dollars to buy-down local property taxes or provide larger exemptions. These tax swaps and exemptions, while well-intentioned, have not been enough to transform the lives of property owners in HD 121 and across Texas.

With our current crisis, every town is a border town.

Whether its increased crime, dangerous drugs like fentanyl flooding our streets, or horrific human trafficking, the chaos on our border threatens people and property across Texas.

The time for half-measures on solving our border crisis is over. Texas must lead to protect its people and their property.

For decades, Texas has strongly championed policies that support the family as the cornerstone of our society. However, our state must do more to ensure that pregnant mothers, new moms, the elderly, and babies have the health care and support needed to thrive and achieve the American Dream.

For me, being pro-life and pro-family means lifting up our most vulnerable and giving them an opportunity to realize their potential and contribute back to our economy and culture.

As a parent, I know firsthand the love we have for our children. While we have many great schools in HD 121, not every family and not every child is fortunate enough to have real educational opportunities that can end generational poverty and transform lives.

We can best support our public schools by making sure teachers are well-compensated and have the resources they need to meet the challenges and demands of the modern classroom.

We can, and must, do both!

I can honestly say that the only reason I stepped up for public office is to better safeguard the future my children and grandchildren stand to inherit. I will not always be here to provide for them and to protect them, so ensuring our state continues down a safe and prosperous path is so important.

As your next State Representative, I will be an unapologetic defender of our values and our culture, which I believe are under assault every day in our country and institutions.

We should look no further than the inexplicable movement to allow men to compete in girls’ sports and share their private places to know that we are drifting from our moral foundations and senses of justice and right and wrong.

I will take on any movement, effort, or institution that would sacrifice our children’s innocence or put them at risk.

You can trust me to always put your family at the forefront of my priorities in every decision I make.

As a society we should maintain absolutely no tolerance for anyone who terrorizes their loved ones within the home or harms a child in any way.

When I ran for District Attorney in 2022, one of my top priorities was pursuing these cases which unbelievably languish in Bexar County.

As your next state representative, I am going to ensure that we have laws that put abusers and child predators where they belong: behind bars.

And if our District Attorneys won’t move the cases, then we need to examine expanding our current law to remove them from office for failure to protect their constituents.

In 2022, I ran for District Attorney because I truly believe that our current law enforcement officials in Bexar County are sacrificing the people they represent and their rights for the rights of criminals.  

As your next state representative, I will close loops that District Attorneys exploit under the ridiculous guise of “prosecutorial discretion” and I will make sure that not one state dollar flows to a District Attorney, or Sheriff, who is unwilling to fully carry out the laws of this state.
