As a Retired Border Patrol Agent with 26 years of experience in securing the Nation’s border and ensuring public safety, I fully endorse and support Ricardo Rick Martinez as Candidate for State Representative House District 125. Mr. Martinez will ensure that public safety is a main priority and will work with Governor Abbot as well as local, state, and Federal Agencies in ensuring a safe community for everyone. As a family man and business owner, Mr. Martinez will prioritize safety, education, lower taxes, and fiscal responsibility for the community.

It is my pleasure to endorse Ricardo Martinez for State Representative House District 125 of the Great State of Texas. Rick is a pillar of the community and very involved in local organizations that assist those in need. I have known Rick for 20 years and he has always been willing to help less fortunate individuals, whether it be the homeless, veterans, or underprivileged children. He is a devoted family man and a strong supporter of law enforcement, first responders and the military. Rick has always led from the front, will vote with his conscience and will not hesitate to do the right thing, no matter the situation. As a retired Border Patrol Agent, U.S. Army Veteran and a proud Texan, I strongly support Ricardo “Rick” Martinez.

I am honored to offer my full support and endorsement for Rick Martinez as he runs for the Texas House of Representatives, District 125.
As a resident of District 125, I take great pride in the mission Rick is on and in the opportunity to support a leader who truly reflects the values of our community. I have had the privilege of knowing Rick as a man of integrity, strong character, and unwavering commitment to serving others. He leads with humility, listens with intention, and approaches challenges with both conviction and compassion.
Rick’s strong conservative values and belief system are evident in the way he lives and leads. He understands the importance of protecting individual freedoms, supporting families, promoting responsible government, and standing firm on the principles that keep Texas strong. His dedication to doing what is right — even when it is not easy — is exactly the kind of leadership we need.
Having both lived in Germany, Rick and I share a unique perspective on how policies shape communities over time. Seeing firsthand how leadership decisions can impact security, culture, and economic stability has deepened our appreciation for the freedoms and opportunities we have here in Texas. Rick understands the importance of balancing compassion with order and ensuring that our communities remain safe, strong, and rooted in the values that make them thrive. That real-world perspective will serve District 125 well.
What sets Rick apart is his genuine desire to serve the people of this district with honesty, accountability, and a tireless work ethic. I am confident he will be a strong voice for our community and will represent District 125 with honor and distinction.
I strongly encourage voters and community members to support Rick Martinez. He has my complete confidence and enthusiastic endorsement, and I am proud to stand with him as both a friend and a neighbor in this district.
