Brian Harrison is a passionate and effective advocate for limited government and individual liberty who proudly represents House District 10, which covers all of Ellis County. A native Texan and graduate of Ovilla Christian School, Brian and his family have long been involved in Ellis County.

Under his leadership, HHS protected the unborn, secured the border, increased private health insurance options, advanced government policies that decreased costs, protected patients, increased transparency and accountability, and inserted free market forces into the healthcare sector.
