Johnson brings more than three decades of public service, community leadership, and legislative experience to the effort to enact congressional term limits and restore accountability in Washington, D.C. He believes Texans have an opportunity to help lead one of the nation\u2019s most popular and urgently needed government reforms.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am honored to serve as Texas State Co-Chair for U.S. Term Limits and help advance this important cause,\u201d said Johnson. \u201cAmericans are frustrated with a Congress that has become increasingly disconnected from the people it serves. Congressional term limits will help restore accountability, encourage citizen leadership, and bring fresh ideas and new energy to our nation\u2019s capital.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur Founding Fathers never intended public office to become a lifetime career,\u201d continued Johnson. \u201cWhen elected officials remain in office for decades, Washington becomes more focused on preserving political power than solving the problems facing hardworking Americans. Term limits will help ensure that elected officials remain focused on serving the people rather than serving themselves.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTexas has long been a leader in defending constitutional principles and promoting limited government,\u201d concluded Johnson. \u201cI look forward to working with citizens across our state to help make congressional term limits a reality.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Johnson has dedicated more than 30 years to building stronger, safer, and more equitable communities throughout Texas. A lifelong Houstonian, entrepreneur, and public servant, he has devoted his career to empowering individuals and expanding opportunities for underserved communities.<\/p>\n<p>Johnson served in the Texas House of Representatives from 2016 through January 2025, representing District 139. During his tenure, he championed legislation focused on public education, mental health, criminal justice reform, youth development, senior services, public safety, and economic opportunity. Through his legislative leadership and budget advocacy, he helped secure more than\u00a0$2.1 billion\u00a0in investments for flood control, infrastructure improvements, historically Black colleges and universities, neighborhood revitalization, and other critical community priorities.<\/p>\n<p>Prior to serving in the Legislature, Johnson made history as one of the youngest individuals elected to the Houston City Council, representing District B. Throughout his career, he has been recognized for his innovative leadership, successful community development initiatives, youth mentorship programs, and commitment to creating economic opportunities for Texas families. He is also a successful business owner whose commitment to hiring locally reflects his lifelong belief in strengthening communities from within.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are honored to have Jarvis Johnson helping lead our efforts in Texas,\u201d said Philip Blumel, President of U.S. Term Limits. \u201cJarvis has spent his career fighting for stronger communities, greater accountability, and better government. His extensive experience in public service and his deep commitment to empowering citizens make him an outstanding advocate for congressional term limits. We are confident his leadership will help build tremendous momentum for term limits reform throughout Texas.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">###<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"For Immediate Release\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":381035,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[27,29,28],"class_list":["post-381034","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-texas","tag-texas","tag-texas-headlines","tag-texas-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/381034","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=381034"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/381034\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/381035"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=381034"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=381034"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=381034"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
