- Barbara Bush, daughter of former President George W. Bush, also supported Talarico by contributing to a super PAC backing the Democrat in the Texas Senate race.
- The Lone Star Rising PAC, which supports Talarico, is a key player in the closely contested race against Paxton, who is backed by Trump-linked MAGA groups.
