Jon Bouché Calls for Reform to Restore Integrity and Balance to the Texas House
November 11, 2025 | Media Inquiries: jon@bouchefortexas.com
MONTGOMERY COUNTY, TX - From the moment I entered the race for Texas House District 16, one of my top priorities has been to reform the dysfunctional structure of the Texas House and return power to the Representatives elected by the people.
When the Texas House was established in 1845, it was designed to operate as a representative, Republican body. Over time, however, power has been increasingly centralized in the hands of the Speaker, creating an environment ripe for corruption, backroom deals, and political favoritism.
Session after session, a small group of Republicans have joined Democrats to install a Speaker who advances personal and political interests over those of Texans. The result is a House leadership structure that undermines the will of the majority and weakens the Republican Party’s influence.
To address this, I have called on Republican Party of Texas Chairman Abraham George to establish a subcommittee within the Legislative Priorities Committee to review and recommend changes to the Texas House rules—specifically, reforms that would return authority from the Speaker to the body, as intended by Article 1, Section 2 of the Texas Constitution.
Additionally, I have submitted recommendations to the House Republican Caucus Chair proposing rule changes that strengthen accountability and transparency within the Caucus itself.
A resolution outlining these reforms has been shared with both Chairman George and the Caucus Chair for review.
If we fail to act with courage and foresight, the Texas House risks once again falling under Democratic control in 2027, leaving the Republican majority—and the values it represents—effectively powerless.
It is time to restore integrity, balance, and true representation to the People’s House.

Montgomery County Republican Party Chairman, Gwen Withrow, with candidate for Texas House District 16, Jon Bouché, at Republican Party Headquarters on November 8th.
MONTGOMERY, TX – Jon Bouché officially filed to run for Texas House District 16 at the Montgomery County Republican Party Headquarters today, placing him on the ballot in the March 3, 2026, Republican Primary Election.
“I decided to run for the Texas House when our current Representative, Will Metcalf, joined the Democrats in their fight against the House Republican Caucus and the Republican Party,” Bouché said. “We need a strong, Texas-first Republican in House District 16. I will never abandon Montgomery County by voting with Democrats.”
A longtime Montgomery County resident, Bouché is a businessman, real estate agent, and dedicated Republican activist. He has been in the trenches for the Republican Party since 2004, serving as a Precinct Chairman and three terms as the Montgomery County Republican Party Vice Chairman.
Bouché was the 2019 Republican Party Volunteer of the Year for Senate District 4 and served at the 2022 Texas GOP Convention on the Platform Committee and as Chair of the Criminal and Civil Justice Committee. He served on the Rules Committee at the 2024 State Convention.
“Republicans must unite in the House if we are to lead our state and deliver on the Republican Legislative Priorities,” said Bouché. “Our constituents demand this, and they deserve representation. In Austin, I will champion accountability to ensure our priorities are achieved.”

Misty Odenweller Endorses Jon Bouché
Misty Odenweller was elected to the Conroe ISD Board of Trustees in November 2022 as part of the original “Mama Bears” slate of conservative candidates and now serves as the Board President.

Odenweller has worked to improve curriculum content, pushed for policy on parental authority regarding gender fluidity, opposed the inclusion of Critical Race Theory (CRT), and advocated for the removal of books deemed inappropriate or violating obscenity clauses.
Her Christian faith has guided her as a wife, mother, grandmother, business owner, teacher, and Conroe ISD Trustee.
“It is a great honor to have the endorsement of Misty Odenweller, Conroe ISD Board President,” Bouché said. “Misty has worked tirelessly at improving outcomes for students and listening to her constituents. I will do the same when I get to Austin, and you can count on it!”

Jon Bouché Announces New Endorsements
October 20, 2025 | Media Inquiries: jon@bouchefortexas.com
MONTGOMERY COUNTY, TX - Conroe ISD Trustees Melissa Dungan and Nicole May have announced their endorsement of Jon Bouché for House District 16.
Dungan was part of the original slate of “Mama Bears” who served as the conservative minority prior to the November 2024 election of four additional conservative board members, including May.
Dungan endured relentless media attacks for attempting to remove Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs, pornographic library books, and leftist personal ideologies from the classroom.
May joined a slate of three other Conservatives to defeat the remaining leftist trustees in the November 2024 election, giving Conroe ISD a seven-member, fully conservative school board.
“Jon will be a strong voice for Texas House district 16 in Austin,” May said. “Keep fighting the good fight!”
