About

Elected: 2018 (4th term)

  • Background: Former Texas state representative, attorney
  • Committees: Financial Services
  • District: East Texas including Terrell and parts of Dallas County eastern suburbs
  • Family / heritage: East Texas Republican, aligned with America First wing

Bio Gooden has grown increasingly Ukraine-skeptical and lines up with the America First wing on foreign policy. He supports Russia sanctions rhetorically but opposes most direct U.S. funding measures.

Ukraine Record

  • Ukraine-cautious on recent aid packages
  • Has supported some sanctions measures

Advocacy Insight

  • Ask them to: Sign onto the REPO Act (H.R. 5835), which uses frozen Russian assets to rebuild Ukraine at zero taxpayer cost
  • Why it works with them: Zero taxpayer cost, Russian asset seizure, and the China-Russia axis are the only frames he engages on
  • Your connection: You are part of the East Texas conservative base that wants no new spending
  • Avoid: Leading with aid framing or any U.S. military spending angle

Without this bill, hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians who fled the war and built lives in the U.S. face deportation back to an active war zone. This is the single most urgent protection for Ukrainians in America.

    Hi, my name is [YOUR NAME], a constituent from [YOUR CITY/ZIP].
    
    I'm calling to urge Representative [REPRESENTATIVE'S NAME] to cosponsor H.R. 3104, the Ukrainian Adjustment Act of 2025.
    
    Hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians fled Russia's invasion and are now living in the U.S. on temporary status. They cannot safely return to an active war zone. H.R. 3104 gives them a path to permanent residency. It's bipartisan, it's targeted, and it's the right thing to do.
    
    Will Representative [REPRESENTATIVE'S NAME] cosponsor H.R. 3104?
    
    Thank you.
