The economic issues that helped elect President Donald Trump to a second term may determine the outcome of the U.S. Senate race in Texas. The candidates for the Senate in Texas have different approaches to addressing the economy and affordability. Republican Senate candidate Ken Paxton's plan includes a $50,000 deduction for first-time homebuyers, $25,000 for health care expenses, and a $5,000 tax break for certain healthy living expenses like gym costs and GLP-1 medications.

The outcome of this election could determine which party controls Congress.
