Greetings to Robertson From Jose Navarro Balbuena Katy, TX
I’m sending this postcard directly to you from my home in Katy, TX. Whether you're passing Hearne Camp Hearne WWII Historic Site, Calvert Victorian Main Street & Brazos Valley Ranches around Franklin, working a 70-hour hitch in the field, hauling freight, running cattle, or teaching in Robertson County schools, you know the value of a hard-earned dollar. I worked as an oil & gas technical engineer whose work focused on restoring live telemetry and troubleshooting field infrastructure, and as a tax strategist helping working families like yours. You shouldn't have to fight corporate speculators for your county's water and electricity or lose your paycheck to runaway property appraisals and 15.3% self-employment taxes.
“I want you to know that my policies are mine. They weren’t written by corporate lobbyists or political consultants—they come directly from my own personal experience, everyday common sense, and the real-life experiences of my clients and the good families I have met on the campaign trail across Robertson County and all of Texas.”

Issues Hitting Your Pocketbook in Robertson & How My Plan Works for You
“Let’s Cut the Cord on Data Centers” — Powered by My J.O.S.E. Local AI
Corporate data centers drain Texas water and push ERCOT hikes onto your Robertson electric bill. Instead of subsidizing them on your back, I built my own sovereign AI in Katy, TX—and I’ll focus on re-engineering current server plants so that they put into the power grid and rely on their own closed-loop cooling and not on your local water resources.

With a median household income around $57,000/yr and median home values near $185,000 in Robertson County, working families, 1099 contractors, truckers, and small business owners like you around Franklin are overtaxed by a system built for corporate lobbyists.
