The Texas First Pledge is a project of the Texas Nationalist Movement (TNM Inc.), a 501(c)(4) social welfare organization, not a political action committee. Signing is open to any candidate or officeholder of any party. Inclusion is not an endorsement, and not a statement of support for or opposition to any candidate's election.
