NRSC accuses Talarico of gun confiscation in Texas Senate race

Democratic state Rep. James Talarico, a candidate in the 2026 Texas U.S. Senate race, has been accused by the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) of wanting to confiscate all guns in Texas. This claim comes amid a heated contest between Talarico and Republican Attorney General Ken Paxton, where firearms policy is a major campaign issue. Talarico’s platform officially endorses measures such as universal background checks and secure-storage requirements but does not include complete gun confiscation. The accusation follows a multimillion-dollar ad campaign by the NRA targeting Talarico’s stance on gun control, with former President Trump expressing trust in Paxton’s defense of gun rights. Observers should monitor whether the claim impacts voter sentiment or polling data leading up to the election.
