Over the years, I've written about many topics, many of which affect San Antonio. Below is a summary:

If these reflect your values and beliefs, please consider contributing to my campaign. As much as I wish you were allowed to freely express your support to the fullest, I can accept only $500 per person per campaign finance rules.

Along with your generous pledge, for reporting purposes, I will also need your name, address, occupation, and who you work for. You can donate via Venmo, @Chris-Baecker, or send a check to 9811 Gantry Court, San Antonio, TX, 78251.

Perhaps more importantly than monetary support, spread the word. Share this link with others who may be inclined to support me, or if they live in District 6, vote for me as well.

Thank you,
Chris

I have worked in accounting for 25 years. I have taught economics to local college students since 2014. I am sending 4 wonderful daughters out into the world. I stay involved in local politics via InfuseSA, and have run for city council in 2021 and 2023. To see where my mind is at, check me out at RealClearMarkets, Mises Wire, The American Spectator, the Foundation for Economic Education, and the San Antonio Express-News, among other.

Chris si far I have enjoyed what you stand for but, you have not said if your running republican or democrat. Please let me know how your running as that means something for me to let me know how you stand overall. Thanks Shawn.

Shawn, good afternoon, and thanks for reading. Glad you like what you see; that's the most important thing to me.

It is my understanding that local races here are technically non-partisan in nature. That said, if I were ever to run for congress, it would be either as a Rand-Paul republican, or libertarian.

Regards,
Chris

CUZ WE HEARD THIS SAME STORY BEFORE, OF MIDDLE OF THE ROAD STANCE FROM OTHER CORRUPT POLITICIANS.(.EG..BERNIE SANDERS) I'M A VETERAN AND LOVE THIS COUNTRY...WILLING TO DIE FOR IT..IF NEED BE...SO I HOPE PEOPLE THAT LOVE THIS COUNTRY AND SUPPORT OUR CONSTITUTION AND THE SACRIFICES OF OUR FOUNDING FATHERS WILL READ THIS POST AND MAKE UP THEIR MINDS ABOUT YOU...

Mr. Martinez, good afternoon, and thank you for taking the time to read this post.
I have updated it for clarity where I believe it was lacking. Was there another point that needed attention? There are precious few issues that I'm unsure about, and I certainly wouldn't want it to come across that way.
You won't find many proponents of the FFs bigger than me. I've read almost all their writings (except Madison and half of Adams) and hold them in the highest regard for what they blessed us with.
I'm happy to address any issue about which you may question me.

Regards,
Chris
