  • "God bless those that marched for life today in DC and took a stand for those that don't have a voice. All life is precious and is created in God's image. We should always stand to defend those who can't defend themselves." (twitter.com)
  • Growing up, I wasn't surrounded by many babies, but I will never forget the first time I held my new nephew. My heart melted. He was so small and so innocent. Such innocence and vulnerability deserve our protection. We have a duty to stand and fight for those who are unable to fight for themselves. I believe that life begins at conception, is sacred, and is created by God and in His image. (brettguilloryforcongress.com)
  • Our Declaration of Independence states that we are endowed by our Creator "with certain unalienable rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness." Yet sadly, our country has not lived up to the first principle on that list: Life. Over 60,000,000 unborn human beings have lost their lives from abortion. This is a staggering number of unique individuals; each with their own mind, heartbeat, and soul, that were never given the opportunity to live. (brettguilloryforcongress.com)
  • "So "my body, my choice" is only good for killing babies huh..." (twitter.com)
  • Printing money that we don't have has caught up with us. Excessive and wasteful government spending has increased our national debt and lowered the value of the dollar, thereby decreasing our overall purchasing power. I will work to curb wasteful spending and ensure that Washington works within a more limited budget. (brettguilloryforcongress.com)
  • We have income tax laws in this country, the coaches pay their income taxes (I hope so at least). If the athlete makes money they should be subject to the same laws as you and I... you can’t hide under the of being a kid while being of adult age and making big $$$. Pay up.. (twitter.com)

  • We must concentrate our efforts on building a strong military that will defend us and our country. - End Nation Building & Endless Wars - We just witnessed the painful culmination of a 20-year war. During those same two decades, we’ve also witnessed another long war; one we got into based upon lies and false information. America’s sons and daughters who sign up to serve deserve better than this. Their life’s blood should not be spilled in the name of nation building and endless wars. This must stop. I will stand against this, and any blank checks used to fund it. (brettguilloryforcongress.com)

  • Critical Race Theory (CRT) is infecting our education system at every level. The indoctrination of our youth with this radical, Marxist agenda must be stopped. I will work to ban this ideology from our schools. (brettguilloryforcongress.com)
  • "We can fix education at the federal level and give more power to the states, but it takes grassroots candidates that have the desire to fix these issues, and the know how. Keep the lobbyist out of it. #TX38 #ICare" (twitter.com)
  • "We have a responsibility to enact policies and standards that better serve the students, training them for a successful future. We also need to fix the accountability system, as currently, the sole responsibility for a student’s success falls on the shoulders of the teacher. " (brettguilloryforcongress.com)
  • "Any energy strategy must start with Energy Independence. Reliance on others for our country’s needs, especially energy sources, is a recipe for disaster. Nuclear energy should be at the forefront of fulfilling our ever-growing energy needs. We must also leverage natural gas, which we have an abundance of, and exploit our plentiful oil resources in a responsible manner." (brettguilloryforcongress.com)
  • "Clean up our oceans and rid them of garbage patches. Penalize both domestic and foreign polluters with fines." (brettguilloryforcongress.com)
  • "Thankful for the Oil & Gas Workers Association endorsement. Energy is not only important for Texas but is the lifeblood of Houston’s economy. OGWA promotes jobs for American workers and is dedicated to energy independence and American oil. I too will stand for these values. #TX38" (twitter.com)
  • "The right to bear arms should never be infringed. I will always support our right to defend ourselves and our families. I will work to block any efforts to provision the government with tools that will encroach upon this right or be used against Americans." (brettguilloryforcongress.com)
  • "I’m not anything. I judge based on what I see. Do I support police? Sure, they have a tough job. But do I support the police when they are just "following orders" if they come and take my guns because some idiot told them to? No... we’re nazi soilders just "following orders" (twitter.com)
  • "Straw man argument, there isn’t "one" meaning to it. Guns were used for a multitude of reasons as they are today. The purpose of the amendment is to not infringe on the TOOLS (guns) that keep freedoms and what provides security." (twitter.com)

  • A country without borders isn’t a country. It is vulnerable and weak, rather than secure and strong. We must secure our border, stopping the flow of illegal immigration, crime, and human trafficking that is pouring across it. This isn’t uncaring or inhumane. It’s common sense. (brettguilloryforcongress.com)
  • "Border Security - Finish the wall." (brettguilloryforcongress.com)
  • "Can we build a real wall? #TX38" (twitter.com)
  • "Legal Immigration – I will work to incentivize legal immigration to encourage all those that seek freedom and a better life to do so the right way." (brettguilloryforcongress.com)
