About Dan Crenshaw

STRAIGHT FROM DAN

Congressman, Lieutenant Commander (Ret), & former Navy SEAL.

WHY DAN CARES

Dan serves as the Representative for Texas’ 2nd Congressional district. As a 6th generation Texan and Houstonian, Dan has a deep love for his country and state. Dan and his wife Tara understand that there is no higher calling than service-before-self to the American people. While Dan no longer fights on the battlefield, he utilizes the integrity, leadership, vision, and tenacity he gained in the SEAL teams to serve honorably in Congress. Dan stands for common sense policies that ensure our nation’s prosperity and security, represent our Foundational values, and give Texans a reason to once again be proud of their leaders.
