After a narrow victory in the 2024 Republican Primary runoff, Congressman Tony Gonzales faces a rematch against social media personality Brandon Herrera in the March Republican Primary for Congressional District 23. The district encompasses a wide swath of West Texas, stretching from San Antonio to El Paso and covering hundreds of miles along the Texas-Mexico border.
Support for President Trump has emerged as a focal point in the race, with Trump endorsing Gonzales last month.
“Congressman Tony Gonzales is a terrific Representative for the wonderful people of Texas’ 23rd Congressional District!
A retired Master Chief Petty Officer from the U.S. Navy, who bravely deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan, Tony knows the Wisdom and Courage that is required to Defend our Country, Support our Brave Military/Veterans, and Ensure PEACE THROUGH STRENGTH. In Congress, Tony is working hard to Grow our Economy, Cut Taxes and Regulations, Promote MADE IN THE U.S.A., Champion American Energy DOMINANCE, Keep our now very Secure Border, SECURE, and Defend our always under siege Second Amendment.
Tony Gonzales has my Complete and Total Endorsement for Re-Election — HE WILL NOT LET YOU DOWN!”, said President Trump in a December 18, 2025 Truth Social post.
