James Matlock

Jim Matlock is a native Texan that proudly served his country as a U. S. Marine and is ready to serve the land and mineral owners of Texas by protecting the independent property owners, the individual mineral owners and the independent producers of oil and gas in our state as the next Commissioner for the Railroad Commission of Texas.

In addition to gaining leadership skills as a U. S. Marine, Jim has eighteen years field experience in oil and gas; from title work, to truck supervisor, to small business owner and consultant.

His most profound quote is, “Don’t tell me there’s an energy crisis when I am still seeing waste.” Jim is running to reduce/eliminate oilfield waste, and give every Texan a voice on oil and gas policy.
