Preserving Sovereignty Through Strategic Foresight
The need to protect and ensure Texas’ longer-term security and survival is critical.
Given Texas’ geography, coupled with strong economic growth, critical industries and emphasis on the safety and security, the State is paving the way in terms of ensuring that the interests of all Americans are prioritized.
The Texas National Security Caucus aims to continue this success, while honing in on and supporting critical policy areas of importance to Texans.
We bring together the brightest minds in policy and public service to address the unique challenges facing our state in an increasingly complex global landscape.
As a bipartisan, bicameral legislative coalition, we are dedicated to advancing policies that ensure the sovereignty, security, and economic resilience of Texas.

Why We Built This Caucus
The long-term security and survival of Texas is too important to leave to chance. With 15+ military installations, national leadership in energy, a major agricultural base, and more than 1,200 miles of international border, Texas sits at the frontlines of America’s security — and what we protect here protects the nation.
We built the Texas National Security Caucus as a bipartisan, bicameral forum where legislators, industry, and stakeholders can tackle the issues that matter most: defense, the border, energy and infrastructure, agriculture, cybersecurity, and economic resilience. Through trainings, site visits, candid engagement, and a focused legislative agenda, we turn those conversations into real policy that keeps Texans safe and Texas strong.
