AUSTIN, Texas, July 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The following is a statement from Jenn Mack, Candidate for Governor of Texas.

My fellow Texans,

Today, I stand before you humbled, grateful, and determined to announce that I am now officially a Write-In Candidate for Governor of the Great State of Texas.

I am not running because a political party asked me to.

I am not running because a special interest group recruited me.

And I am certainly not running because I believe government has all the answers.

I am running because I believe Texas deserves better.

Our state has always been a beacon of freedom, opportunity, faith, personal responsibility, and common sense. Texans built this state with hard work, sacrifice, and an unwavering belief that government exists to serve the people, not the other way around.

Somewhere along the way, that relationship has become backwards.

Too many career politicians have become more concerned with winning the next election than solving today’s problems. Too many special interests have gained influence that rightly belongs to the people. Too much division has replaced common purpose.

Republicans blame Democrats.

Democrats blame Republicans.

Meanwhile, everyday Texans are simply trying to provide for their families, keep their communities safe, educate their children, afford their homes, and preserve the freedoms that generations before us fought so hard to protect.

I’m running because I believe Texans deserve a governor who works for every Texan, not just those who belong to one political party.

I am running as a write-in candidate because I refuse to believe that Texans only deserve the choices that political insiders approve.

This campaign belongs to every Texan who has ever said:

“There has to be a better way.”

Whether you’re Republican, Democrat, Libertarian, Independent, or whether you’ve simply become politically homeless, you have a place in this campaign.

This isn’t about left versus right.

This is about right versus wrong.

It’s about restoring trust.

Restoring accountability.

Restoring integrity.

And restoring the understanding that elected officials work for the citizens—not the citizens for the government.

Our campaign will focus on what truly matters.

We will fight to secure our border and uphold the rule of law.

We will defend Texas families and protect our children.

We will strengthen our electric grid and secure our water supply so Texans never again question whether basic necessities will be available.

We will support our law enforcement officers while ensuring our communities remain among the safest anywhere in America.

We will champion small businesses, ranchers, farmers, entrepreneurs, and working families who built this state’s economy.

We will protect constitutional freedoms and individual liberties that define who we are as Texans.

And above all, we will restore honesty, transparency, and accountability to state government.

I don’t pretend that one person can solve every problem.

But I do know this:

When Texans come together, there is nothing we cannot accomplish.

Throughout our history, Texans have never waited for someone else to rescue us.

We roll up our sleeves.

We help our neighbors.

We solve problems.

We lead.

That’s exactly what this campaign is about.

Over the coming months, I will travel from El Paso to Beaumont…

From Amarillo to Brownsville…

From Dallas to Houston…

From Lubbock to Corpus Christi…

And everywhere in between.

I won’t simply speak to crowds.

I’ll listen.

I’ll meet with parents, teachers, ranchers, business owners, veterans, first responders, healthcare workers, energy producers, community leaders, and everyday Texans whose voices have too often been ignored.

This campaign is not about me.

It is about you.

It is about the future we will build together.

Some people will say a write-in campaign cannot succeed.

History reminds us that every great movement began with people willing to challenge conventional wisdom.

Every major change began because ordinary citizens decided that accepting the status quo was no longer acceptable.

This campaign is about giving Texans another choice.

A real choice.

A choice based upon principles instead of party labels.

A choice based upon service instead of self-interest.

A choice based upon solutions instead of slogans.

If you believe government belongs to the people…

If you believe faith, family, freedom, and the Constitution still matter…

If you believe we can disagree without becoming enemies…

If you believe Texas can once again lead America by example…

Then I ask you to join us.

Volunteer.

Share our message.

Tell your family.

Tell your neighbors.

Tell your friends.

Most importantly, remember to write in Jenn Mack for Governor of Texas when you cast your ballot this November.

This campaign will not be powered by political machines.

It will be powered by Texans.

Together, we can prove that integrity still matters.

That leadership still matters.

That courage still matters.

And that the people, not the political establishment, still hold the ultimate power in this great state.

May God continue to bless each of you.

May God continue to bless the Great State of Texas.

And may God continue to bless the United States of America.

Thank you.

Let’s get to work!

Jenn Mack

PROCOMER carried out an investment promotion mission in both Asian markets to position Costa Rica as a strategic platform for regional operations.

SAN JOSÉ, Costa Rica, July 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — As part of its strategy to diversify the sources of foreign direct investment (FDI) flowing into the country, the Trade and Investment Promotion Agency of Costa Rica (PROCOMER) conducted an investment promotion mission to South Korea and Japan aimed at strengthening relationships with companies already operating in Costa Rica while positioning the country as a strategic platform for regional business expansion.

The mission included meetings with multinational companies, investors, and business organizations, as well as the Costa Rica Investment Day Seoul 2026 and Costa Rica Investment Day Tokyo 2026 events, which brought together more than 75 business and institutional representatives from both markets. The visit took place at a time when Asian companies are accelerating the diversification of their supply chains and evaluating new locations to strengthen their international operations. Against this backdrop, Costa Rica continues to reinforce its positioning as a competitive investment destination, supported by key advantages including a highly skilled and growing talent pool, political and economic stability, sustainability, legal certainty, and preferential access to major international markets.

“Asia represents a strategic opportunity to diversify the origins of foreign direct investment in Costa Rica. South Korea and Japan are home to globally recognized companies in manufacturing, technology, logistics, and business services, all of which maintain significant international investment capacity. Strengthening our presence in these markets enables us to broaden our pipeline of potential investors, create new opportunities for the country, and continue positioning Costa Rica as a trusted partner for high value-added investment projects across the region,” said Mónica Umaña, FDI Attraction Manager at the Trade and Investment Promotion Agency of Costa Rica (PROCOMER).

The mission—joined by Costa Rica’s Ambassador to South Korea, Jorge Valerio, and Costa Rica’s Ambassador to Japan, Sussi Jiménez—provided an opportunity for PROCOMER to present Costa Rica’s value proposition to South Korean and Japanese companies evaluating expansion opportunities across the Americas. The agency also promoted investment opportunities in sectors including light and advanced manufacturing, packaging, construction materials, plastics, chemicals, logistics, distribution, international trade, retail, digital technologies, corporate services, agribusiness, and medical devices. In addition, meetings were held with companies already established in Costa Rica to explore new opportunities for growth and expansion.

Beyond showcasing Costa Rica’s competitive advantages, PROCOMER met with prospective investors and the headquarters of companies already operating in the country to gain insights into their expansion plans, strengthen long-term relationships, identify emerging investment trends, gather market intelligence, and establish new strategic contacts to support Costa Rica’s FDI attraction strategy. South Korean company SAE and Japanese medical technology company Terumo, both of which have operations in Costa Rica, also shared their experiences investing in the country with other potential investors.

Fourteen companies from South Korea and Japan currently operate in Costa Rica, reflecting the diversity and sophistication of Asian investment in the country. Among the success stories is SAE, which operates three highly automated cotton yarn manufacturing facilities. Hitachi has established a corporate and technology services operation in Costa Rica that provides regional and global support in areas including information technology, business process services, and shared business services, reinforcing the country’s position as a leading knowledge-intensive services hub. Meanwhile, Terumo operates a high-tech medical device manufacturing facility producing equipment for cardiovascular procedures as well as blood and cell technologies. The company has recently expanded its Costa Rican operation by adding engineering and research and development (R&D) capabilities, further strengthening the country’s role as a strategic hub for the global medical device industry.
