Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

Defund the Department of Education

Return the money to our counties to lower taxes and support our community's creation and

enhancement of job skills training. Not every young Texan is college bound. Finally

enforcing immigration law creates more opportunity for young Texans.

Our young people need to learn to use their heads and hands and feet and put down the

computer and cell phones. We need to teach pride in honest work and help them earn the

American Dream.Protecting our Property Rights

Ben Bius will Defend our water, land and electrical grid.

Restoring our Lakes and Rivers will vastly improve Texas’ water quality and quantity. Our

Lakes and Rivers have been silted in contributing to flooding. I plan to work with the Texas

Delegation in congress to fund FEMA, The Army Corp of Engineers and others to expedite

resolving this issue.

The Texas electrical grid is being strained by the mad rush to develop Data Centers in an

unsustainable and questionable way. The Texas Senate has passed laws requiring that

these data centers pay their own way and not on the back of our communities and

homeowners. The federal government has proposed to pre-empt Texas law. I will protect our rights as Texans.Californication

One of my opponents, a Lawyer from Austin, is the chosen candidate for

the tech billionaires. It wasn’t long ago they financed Obama, Biden and Pelosi. They brag

about creating this district with his help. They intend to buy this seat with their $110 million

super PAC. Their highly publicized plan is to take this seat so they can stop the rightful

control of AI, take our electricity, water and harm our rural Texas way of life. I stand against

this for Texas. Texans must fight the Californication of Texas!

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Ben is passionate in his belief that the younger generation must be taught to work with their brains and hands and government must recognize that all young people are college bound. Ben believes, that in his first term he can gain support for legislation that defunds the Department of Education and in turn that money would be sent back to counties to create technical and vocational schools kids who aren't college bound. It will open new avenues for young people to earn and make a living achieve the American Dream.

Bius' website highlighted the following campaign themes:[4]

Protecting Our Border

Excerpt: "Securing the border must be one of our top priorities. Many of the issues our state faces are a result of an unprotected border. If President Obama will not protect our border, then Texas must. Ben means business when he says that drug lords and illegal immigrants will no longer have free range in Texas."

The Budget

Excerpt: "As a businessman, husband and father, Ben knows we must live within our means. Our government should as well. Ben knows that every dollar spent comes from the hard work of the taxpayers. Cutting waste, fraud, and abuse are the keys to getting our economy moving again, not raising taxes and increasing regulations."

Protecting Our Jobs

Excerpt: "Our state institutions are the lifeblood of the 5th Senate District. Many of our families and business serve institutions like Texas A&M, Sam Houston State University, TDCJ, and Blinn College. Having graduated from college in our district, Ben will stand up and be a strong advocate for our way of life."

Protecting Life

Excerpt: "As a Christian, Ben believes that every life is sacred. A great nation, under God, does not allow its children’s lives to be taken. A great nation protects life and projects the value of each life in all that it does around the world. Ben believes that it is his duty to fight for the un-born, ill and elderly. 100% pro life."
