The National Rifle Association and the Texas State Rifle Association have endorsed Jim Pitts in his re-election campaign for House District 10 State Representative.  The organizations represent more than four million members throughout the country who are dedicated to preserving our Second Amendment rights.

Ovilla resident Charlie Morton, who is a hunter and lifetime member of the NRA said, “We need people like Jim working hard to protect the rights of gun owners.  Jim Pitts has been a consistent defender of the Constitution, especially the Second Amendment, and I am proud to join my neighbors and fellow law abiding gun owners in endorsing his campaign.”

Chairman Pitts said, “I remain committed to defending the rights of gun owners, and am thrilled to have the endorsement of the NRA and TSRA, which represent thousands of Texans, including many in House District 10.”

Pitts also serves on the Committee on State Sovereignty and the Joint Committee on Oversight of Higher Ed Governance, Excellence & Transparency. House District 10 is comprised of Ellis County and a portion of Henderson County.

Pitts is a Waxahachie attorney.  He also owns the Ellis County Abstract and Title Company, is a director of Citizens National Bank in Waxahachie, and is a Director of Sims Library.  Pitts previously served as President of the Waxahachie Chamber of Commerce, President of the board of trustees of Presbyterian Children’s Services, and President of the Waxahachie Independent School District. He and his late wife Evelyn, have three children.
