Notable personal detailsRhett Marques is an American politician and businessman who has served as a Republican member of the Alabama House of Representatives (District 91) since 2018. He is a University of Alabama graduate and has worked as a small business owner in the automotive services industry. He has run for U.S. House in Alabama, including campaigns connected to the 2026 cycle amid redistricting-related special election activity.
Supports cutting state taxes (including reductions to the grocery sales tax and elimination of sales tax on diapers and baby supplies) and has promoted tax relief packages for seniors; positions emphasize tax cuts and economic relief for families and small businesses and a commitment to advance President Trump’s pro-tax-cut agenda in Congress.
Supports conservative health policies focused on limiting taxpayer funding for abortion providers and advancing pro-life measures; emphasizes investments in rural healthcare infrastructure and broadband to support access. No campaign materials or voting record indicate support for single-payer or large public expansions of coverage.
Supports strong enforcement and border security measures, including detaining and deporting unauthorized migrants, opposing ‘‘catch and release,’’ and keeping criminal undocumented immigrants out of communities. Frames current immigration flows as a threat to sovereignty, wages, and public safety and endorses continuing expanded enforcement funding and policies.
The candidate describes himself as unapologetically pro-life, says he voted for what he calls the strongest pro-life law in the country, and supports blocking federal funding for abortion providers and Planned Parenthood. He pledges to oppose taxpayer funding for abortions and to promote adoption reform and protections for unborn life.
The candidate emphasizes responsible conservation of natural resources while prioritizing coastal and agricultural economic interests and support for industries like commercial fishing and manufacturing. The campaign highlights making life affordable and backing pro-business, pro-energy industry policies; the candidate has accepted endorsements from petroleum and convenience marketers. The overall emphasis is on supporting energy-related businesses and economic development rather than aggressive emissions mandates or Green New Deal–style policies.
The candidate expresses firm support for the Second Amendment, opposes efforts to weaken it, and endorses expanded gun rights including constitutional carry and statewide reciprocity while emphasizing support for law enforcement and cracking down on violent offenders.
