Hunt, Wesley

Wesley Hunt represents Texas's 38th congressional district in the House of Representatives as a member of the Republican Party. He has served in this role since 2023 and brings a background as a former U.S. Army officer to his legislative work.

Hunt serves on two major House committees: the Committee on Natural Resources, where he participates in subcommittees on Energy and Mineral Resources and Federal Lands, and the Committee on the Judiciary, where he focuses on The Constitution and Limited Government and Immigration Integrity, Security, and Enforcement. These assignments reflect his legislative priorities in natural resource management, constitutional matters, and immigration policy.

Throughout his tenure, Hunt has sponsored 27 bills addressing various policy areas. His legislative efforts include the Protecting Americans from Russian Litigation Act of 2025, constitutional amendment proposals affecting congressional membership requirements, immigration reform measures including amendments to the Immigration and Nationality Act and the Temporary Protected Status Reform Act of 2026. These bills demonstrate his focus on national security, constitutional governance, and immigration enforcement.

In 2026, Hunt ran as a candidate in the Republican primary for the U.S. Senate seat in Texas, ultimately placing third behind incumbent Senator John Cornyn and Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton.
