Jackson to seek newly created Congressional seat
Texas state senator Michael Jackson announced his candidacy for the Republican nomination in the newly created 36th U S Congressional District. The district spans eastern Harris and multiple surrounding counties. Jackson, president of Force Corporation, cites Washington spending and job-killing regulations as his motivation. He frames his bid as leveraging his background as a state legislator and small business owner to boost job creation. He notes Force Corporation employs over 100 people plus contractors and serves petrochemical plants and refineries. See Jackson on page 8A.
