Immigration & Border
Supports stronger border security including physical barriers and technology, ending sanctuary city policies, stricter asylum/enforcement measures, and use of E-Verify and guest-worker/regularization mechanisms tied to border security. Policy proposals emphasize funding for barriers and ports-of-entry technology and prioritizing enforcement before broader legalization pathways.
Abortion & Reproductive Rights
Supports policies that restrict abortion at the national level but frames solutions around promoting a "culture of life," adoption, and state-level action. Has said he would be willing to sign national abortion restrictions while also emphasizing supporting adoption and state decision-making.
Climate & Energy
Supports American energy production and energy independence, including expanding oil, natural gas, and nuclear power, while opposing certain carbon-capture pipeline projects on property-rights grounds. Emphasizes energy independence and market-driven approaches rather than endorsement of aggressive emissions regulations or Green New Deal–style policies.
Public Safety & Guns
Supports strong Second Amendment protections, rejects assault-weapons bans as ineffective, and argues that gun-free zones can reduce safety; favors policies that prioritize law enforcement and public safety over new federal gun restrictions.
News
Ryan Binkley is running in the crowded Republican primary for Texas’ 32nd Congressional District, a seat redrawn to favor Republicans. The race includes nine GOP candidates and is expected to go to a runoff because no one is likely to win a majority outright. More broadly, the district is part of a wave of redistricting that has made many House races less competitive ahead of the 2026 midterms.
