Railroad Commissioner
Party Affiliation
Pledge Signed Date
I’m Tom Slocum, and I’m running for Texas Railroad Commissioner. My family landed on the shore in Texas in 1880, at the historic Gulf port town of Indianola.
I am 5th Generation Texan and 4th Generation Texas Oil & Gas. Well Control Certified, with 17 years of upstream experience in the field and in the office operating oil companies in Texas and in the Gulf of Mexico. I have complete knowledge of Texas Title 16 pertaining to all oil, gas, and mining. I have worked with oil companies to insure they are in compliance with regulations. I know why we have the regulations and if we need to tweak them, to make small measured changes and not drastic overhauls that can lead to unforeseen consequences. I have a degree in political science from Texas & University and have practiced oil and gas consulting in Houston since 2012.
I am pro God, pro gun, pro life, pro oil, pro business, pro parents, pro farmer, pro rancher, pro rodeo, pro school choice, a Constitutionalist, and I will always puts the needs of Texans FIRST and foremost. I will not put donors in front of or ahead of my fellow Texans, my constituents. I will always answer to the voters first.
I come from a long line of strong conservative family values. As a lifelong Republican, I’m running to fight for Texas conservative values!
