I’m David Blewett. I’m a Conservative Republican running for Congress in the 32nd District. I am committed to focusing on solutions and not sound bites. While staying true to my conservative principles, I will work to find common ground to solve issues like the border and immigration, strengthening our economy with better jobs and lower taxes, combating terrorism, and meeting head-on the real threats by Russia, China, and Iran.”

The Issues

I’m David Blewett. I’m a Republican running for Congress in the 32 District. Our District stretches from Balch Springs, through East Dallas, north through Richardson and Collin County. A sliver even includes Addison!  I am a long-time East Dallas resident and have raised my family here. Our seven children attended Dallas public schools where I have been an active volunteer and representative. In my community, I have served on Crime Watch Boards and helped protect our neighborhoods. 

In 2019, I won a seat on Dallas’ City Council representing East Dallas, Downtown, and Uptown. I served during a tumultuous time: the George Floyd and Black Lives Matter protests, the COVID outbreak and related economic shutdown led to significant budget constraints and created tension, mistrust, and challenges, and the February 2021 Great Freeze shut down the city for a month. Through it all, I remained committed to ensuring that the residents of Dallas had responsive and effective governmental representation. I am proud of my work on Council. I will do the same for you in Washington.   

I believe President Biden has failed our country. The Middle East is in crisis. Putin and Russia invaded Democratic Ukraine. Communist China continues its hostile and expansionist mercantile policies. The Southern Border is being invaded by millions of illegal immigrants. The economy is faltering. The cost of housing is crushing the hopes of our middle class. Homelessness and crime are destroying our cities. On and on. The critical needs of our country are being ignored in favor of identity politics and divisiveness.  

I am committed to focusing on solutions and not sound bites. While staying true to my conservative principles, I will strive to find common ground to solve issues like the border and immigration, strengthen our economy with better jobs and lower taxes, combat terrorism, and meet head-on the real threats by Russia, China, and Iran.  I am a Pro-life father of seven children who believes in reasonable medical exceptions for rape, incest, and the life of the mother. I believe this issue is not political and is best decided by a woman, her faith, and her doctor.  

Thank you for your time, I’m David Blewett, I’m running to be the next Republican nominee to represent Texas District 32 in Washington. I would be honored to have your support. 

Warm regards, 
David Blewett

Defunding The Police

Since 2017 Blewett has called for hiring and paying for an additional 500-1000 Police Officers. Despite activist calls in 2020 to "Defund the Police" by over $200 million...Blewett voted to increase pay for Police Officers by $16 million and held the line at overall Police Department funding at $500 million. The City of Dallas and Councilman Blewett never voted to "Defund the Police".

Blewett was endorsed by the Dallas Police Association in 2021 for re-election after his votes to increase funding for the Police.

Short Term Rentals

"I recognize unregulated (short-term rentals) as a threat to our single-family neighborhoods," Blewett said. "I would like to see some kind of a three-strike-and-you're-out method where if code is called and your rental isn’t registered, it becomes much more difficult to get registered."

Downtown Crime

“What we’re seeing is an increase in street racing, an increase in scooters that are operating after midnight, an increase in our homeless population,” said Blewett.

Blewett and Garrett say they’re bolstering services, working closely with security patrols, Dallas police and homeless solutions to address growing concerns.

COVID-19

"This crisis and its aftermath are tests, and we must meet them head-on. It is time for us to move from the blanket shutdown toward a more targeted response that begins to open the economy back up, a response that more accurately aligns with the reduced threat COVID-19 presents to our more than capable health care system."
