CARL TEPPER ANNOUNCES CAMPAIGN FOR STATE REPRESENTATIVE
Lubbock, TX - Today, former Lubbock County Republican Party Chairman and local conservative business leader Carl Tepper announced his candidacy for Texas House District 84.
Tepper announces his candidacy with the endorsement of Lubbock State Senator Charles Perry. In making his endorsement, Perry stated: "Carl is a staunch supporter of small government, low property taxes, the Second Amendment and the sanctity of life. Carl is a proven product, a personal friend, and the right person for the challenges we face as a nation, state and community."
Tepper is an Air Force veteran, where he served as a military aviator with over 20 combat-support missions and was awarded the Air Medal for actions during the Persian Gulf War. He then graduated from Texas Tech and is now one of the top commercial real estate professionals in Lubbock.
“With the Biden Administration doing everything it can to undermine Texas' booming economy, create chaos on our border, and insult our values and way of life, Texas needs strong conservative leaders to step up and fight back,” said Tepper. "As your state representative, I promise to always stand up for our values and economy, and we need genuine Red Raiders to defend Texas Tech!"
Tepper was the first Republican Party leader in Texas to endorse Donald Trump for President and was later appointed a surrogate speaker and Statewide Field Director for the Trump campaign. He was an active Chairman of the Lubbock Co. Republican Party and was elected by his peers to serve as President of the Texas Republican County Chairmen’s Association, a great honor and tough job.
Tepper and his wife Robyn reside in Lubbock with their daughter, Claudia, and are members of the Indiana Ave Baptist Church. Tepper is active in his community, a longtime volunteer with The Salvation Army, President of the Sunset Saddle Club, and a frequent guest host on NewsTalk KFYO.
