America First Abroad, Texas First At Home
Larry Rubin believes that strong leadership in Washington begins with accountability at home. America First is not an abstract slogan or a foreign policy posture detached from everyday life in Texas. For Larry, every national decision must pass a simple test: does it make Houston safer, stronger, and more prosperous? If it strengthens our economy, protects our energy industry, secures our border, or defends American workers, he will support it. If it weakens Texas, empowers our adversaries, or burdens our families with higher costs and less security, he will fight it. Representation means putting the interests of our community first, not political games or global agendas.
Unlike career politicians, Larry brings real-world experience to this standard. He has negotiated trade deals that protected Texas energy and manufacturing, worked directly with foreign governments to stop illegal immigration before it reached our border, and stood up publicly to hostile regimes and foreign powers at personal risk. He understands that decisions made overseas have direct consequences for jobs, prices, and security here at home. Larry's commitment is simple and consistent: America First abroad, Texas First at home, and Houston always at the center of the decision. That is what responsible leadership looks like.
