This is a highly consequential race. Much is at stake for Texans.

The Texas Attorney General stands at the crossroads of law, politics, and public trust, wielding the power to defend the state’s values, challenge federal authority, and influence the lives of every living Texan and future generations.

The Texas Attorney General holds one of the most consequential roles in state government — a position that shapes legal policy, protects the public, and steers Texas through its most significant battles in the courts.

This forum is not a debate

— it is a substantive public job interview for the next Attorney General of Texas.

Our goal is to give the public a clear, unfiltered look at each candidate’s legal judgment, ethical grounding, and readiness to serve. The questions you’ll hear are designed to probe not just what the candidates believe, but how they think, how they reason, and how they would wield the authority entrusted to the state’s chief legal officer.

This public job interview will be recorded in its entirety and posted without edits for public viewing as soon as our film company can get it back to us.
