John Carter

When John Carter settled down in Central Texas with his wife, Erika, he knew it was the right place to raise his family because of the great schools, low taxes, and safe communities. John was a young lawyer who recently completed his bachelor’s degree from Texas Tech and his law degree from University of Texas. At first, he was only one of two lawyers in Round Rock, Texas, but a decade later John Carter was appointed District Judge for the 277th District Court in Williamson County. During that time, he aptly earned the nickname that stuck with him to this day; Judge.

ECONOMY AND TAX REFORM

I firmly believe that conservative tax policies will drive economic success. We must focus on policies that will strengthen the middle class and grow small businesses.

I proudly supported the Tax Cut and Jobs Act (TCJA), which reduced tax rates for most Americans. The TCJA keeps more money in Central Texans' wallets and ushered in the most robust economy in decades.

In this recent Congress, I have co-sponsored several bills to strengthen our tax code and return conservative Texas values into our tax code.

  • H.R. 1323 Taxpayer Reciept Act: Requirs the Department of Treasury to provide each taxpayer a one-page estimate of how such tax-payer's money was spent by the government during the immediately preceding calendar year.
  • H.R. 2558  ALIGN Act: To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to permanently allow a tax deduction at the time an investment in qualified property is made.
  • H.R. 2691 American Workfroce Empowerment Act: To amend the Internal revenue Code of 1986 to permit 529 plans to be used for certain non-degree technical training certificate programs and apprenticeship programs.
