"For as long as I can remember, I dreamed of becoming a politician—not for status, but to be of service. I’ve always felt called to help others and to look out for the little guy. I want to make life better for working families, for small business owners, for students trying to find their path, and for people who feel unseen. I believe our district is at a turning point. We need someone who understands our past and is ready to fight for our future. I’m exploring a path to serving TX-18—with honesty, focus, and support from the people who know me best. This isn’t about politics to me. It’s about people. It’s about showing up and getting the job done"
The son of George Foreman Sr., George IV was shaped by a household where second chances were honored and hard work was expected. But he is not running for office because of a last name. George is building a team and preparing to serve the people of Texas’s 18th District because of a lifelong commitment to fighting for everyday people.
After earning his degrees in Journalism and Public Administration from Texas Southern University, George set out to serve. He began his career in the classroom, teaching U.S. History in Houston ISD schools. He went on to develop educational and workforce initiatives with groups like the National Job Corps Association, the NAACP, and local nonprofits. His focus was always on practical solutions—helping people gain skills, find purpose, and build better lives.
His work didn’t stop in classrooms or boardrooms. George has mentored youth across the city, supported family-owned businesses through economic initiatives, and worked directly with churches and neighborhood leaders to meet the needs of Houstonians. He is visible, approachable, and deeply rooted in the district.
George understands that the people of TX-18 are not a monolith. Our neighborhoods are diverse in background, income, and experience, but we share the belief that opportunity should be real, and respect should be mutual. George is exploring a run because he believes our district deserves leadership that listens, responds, and shows up.
This campaign is people-powered. Every supporter, every dollar, every story shared makes a difference. Donate what you can. Share the message. Join the movement.
We have too many young people in our communities who feel like they’re stuck without options. I want to focus on real paths — from skilled trades to mentorship programs to helping students find direction early. Whether it’s college, a career, or a business of their own, I believe in helping our youth get there with confidence.
Everyone deserves to feel safe — in every zip code. That means supporting law enforcement and also making sure our communities are treated with fairness and respect. Safety isn’t just about response time — it’s about trust, opportunity, and real relationships between our neighborhoods and the people sworn to protect them.
Our local businesses are the heart of the district. I want to make it easier to open a business, grow it, and hire from within the community. We need to cut through red tape, support new ideas, and keep resources right here — not lost in government circles.
Basic needs should never be negotiable. From reliable water systems and safer streets to access to mental health care and routine services, too many parts of this district have been left waiting. I’m ready to fight for real improvements you can actually see — not just promises.

George Foreman IV has already launched a project to serve the district now—before a single vote is cast. The TX-18 Education and Storytelling Initiative, created in partnership with the Library of Congress, brings national resources directly into the hands of residents.
This initiative helps people preserve family histories, elevate community voices, and tap into educational tools usually inaccessible outside of Washington. With a focus on intergenerational storytelling, school workshops, and weekly digital content, the project reflects George’s deep belief that our stories matter—and should be seen and shared on the national stage.
A guiding verse for George’s life comes from Psalm 1:1–2, a passage cherished by his father:
His approach to leadership is shaped by faith, not fear. By integrity, not ego.
George Foreman IV discussed his campaign for Texas’s 18th Congressional District, highlighting his focus on vocational training and education to uplift Houston communities.
