The 2024 Republican presidential candidate Ryan Binkley announced his homecoming back to Texas this week.

Binkley, a Preston Hollow resident, is anticipated to engage with thousands of people in Plano and Dallas upon his return to the state. A speaking engagement is scheduled for tonight at 7 p.m. at the Collin County Republican Men’s Club in Plano. Additionally, Binkley is set to address the Texas Young Republican and Young Republican National Convention in Dallas on Friday.

“We are gaining momentum because we’re talking about things that matter to people’s pocketbooks. Our message is about getting our finances on track for the next generation,” businessman and pastor, Binkley said. “We’re going to be $50 trillion in debt in the next eight years if we continue what we’re doing. I’ve got a plan to balance the budget in seven years.”

In Dallas, Binkley will share his presidential plans with an estimated crowd of 3,000 young Republicans. His address will encompass topics including healthcare monopolies, border policies, debt reduction, and strategies to combat poverty through education.

“We’re trying to reach out to urban America and college students,” he said. “The Republicans have not done a good job of that. Our message should resonate regardless of your income level or your age. We need to teach young kids how to read, write and do math. Only one out of six eighth graders in urban America are reading at the eighth-grade level. So I want to start a volunteer movement with college students. For five hours a week, they’ll tutor third graders through fifth graders. Let’s engage the community.”

Before his pursuit in Capital Hill, Binkley and his wife Ellie founded Create Church in Richardson where he also was the pastor. He is also credited with being a businessman for the acquisitions firm Generational Group.    

“America is in desperate need of an economic revival and a heartfelt spiritual revival,” Binkley said. “We’re so broken in these areas. We’ve never been this divided in my lifetime. If we don’t come together to solve some of our biggest problems, we’re going to be in a lot of trouble, more so than we are now. That’s why I’m running – for the next generation.”
