Dear Friends and Neighbors,
It is hard to believe it is election time again in Tarrant County. I was honored to be the Republican candidate for state representative in the December runoff election. Throughout that campaign I did not waver from important conservative issues such as border security, appraisal reform, the sanctity of life, and a quality education system. I will continue to be a strong voice for these issues in the future because they are vital for Tarrant County and for Texas.
It is time for a fresh face and new, innovative solutions in the Texas Legislature. As a pediatrician, father, and business owner, I have worked my entire adult life to create positive outcomes in challenging situations. I will take this same attitude to the Texas House where I will work with other members to solve the tough problems facing Tarrant County and Texas.
My wife, Mary Ann, and I have been active members of this community for over 20 years. We have raised all four of our children in the district and have been involved with many local organizations, including the Lena Pope Home and the Boy Scouts of America Longhorn Council. Therefore, we understand that the decisions of policymakers affect each and every resident of Tarrant County, and I will take this into consideration on every vote I make if I am fortunate enough to serve as your state representative.
I hope you find this site informative as you make your decision for state representative. If you have any questions or comments, please do not hesitate to contact me at 817-921-6554 or . I would greatly appreciate your vote and support.
Sincerely,
Mark Shelton
Republican Candidate
for Texas House District 97
