AUSTIN, TX – Today, Americans for Prosperity Action (AFP Action) announced its endorsement of non-incumbent Eric Flores in his campaign to represent Texas’ 34^th Congressional District and the rollout of a grassroots operation across his district ahead of the primary election on March 3.

AFP Action will utilize its layered approach to voter engagement, including door-to-door canvassing, direct mail, phone outreach, and targeted advertising to ensure Flores’ victory in one of the most competitive races in the country.

“AFP Action is proud to support these candidates and their work to pursue policies that will increase economic opportunity and lower taxes impeding Illinois families and businesses. Illinois needs fiscal discipline and education freedom more than ever — these candidates are well-equipped and capable of continuing that mission in Springfield.” 

Endorsed Candidates: 

State Rep. Norine Hammond (HD-94) 

As the chief budgeteer for the Illinois House GOP Caucus, Hammond has spearheaded fiscally responsible policies and led House Republicans in pushing back against Democrats’ spending problem. A recipient of AFP-Illinois’ 2025 Prairie State Policy Champion award, Hammond has consistently been a voice for fiscal responsibility and education freedom. 

State Rep. Charlie Meier (HD-109) 

Rep. Meier has led on key legislative priorities, including opposing tax increases and attacks on homeschooling families. A leader in the fight against Gov. Pritzker’s disastrous energy agenda that would raise utility costs on hardworking Illinoisians, Meier consistently fights for Illinois taxpayers and fiscal responsibility.  

Jessica Breugelmans (SD-33) 

As a homeschool mom, Jessica Breugelmans deeply understands the importance of educational freedom and parent-led decision-making. Breugelmans will support pension reforms to address Illinois’ pension crisis and rein in rising energy costs in the state. 

State Rep. Paul Jacobs (SD-59) 

Throughout his time in office, Rep. Jacobs has been a fiscal hawk and champion for school choice in Springfield. Jacobs will continue to empower Illinoisians to have more oversight over property tax levies to help save hardworking families’ pocketbooks. He will oppose policies like gas tax increases and support an all-of-the-above approach to energy.

AFP Action Senior Advisor Tim Golding released the following statement: 

“AFP Action has permanent grassroots on the ground in Michigan, listening to voters and earning their trust. Because our team lives and works in these communities, we know what issues matter most to families, and we’re committed to supporting leaders like Mike Rogers who will fight for opportunity, freedom, and a stronger future for Michigan.

“Families are struggling with the cost of everything – all while Washington puts partisanship over solving problems. Mike Rogers understands we need a proven leader that can rise above politics and deliver real results to cut spending and lower taxes, so Michiganders keep more of their hard-earned money.

“Mike Rogers is a Michigander that cares deeply about our future and will fight tirelessly to bring down costs, secure our border, and keep our communities safe.

That groundwork is now being used to communicate directly with voters about Rogers’ record, reinforcing AFP Action’s targeted strategy to turn out the right voters and get Mike Rogers elected to the U.S. Senate.
