Senate District 4 is one of the fastest-growing and most economically significant regions in Texas.\n\n\n\nPrior to his election to the Texas Senate\, Ligon served for 17 years as Montgomery County District Attorney\, where he earned a reputation as a principled conservative leader dedicated to upholding the rule of law. Guided by the motto\, "Let justice be done though the heavens fall\," he never wavered in his mission to protect Texans and deliver justice without compromise. Born in Texas and raised in Montgomery County\, his commitment to public service was shaped early by his stepfather\, a police officer\, and inspired by generations of Texans who stood courageously for their communities and values.\n\n\n\nLigon earned a bachelor's degree from Texas A&M University and a law degree from South Texas College of Law. His career in criminal justice includes service as an Assistant District Attorney in Harris County and as counsel for the Houston Police Officers' Union before being elected District Attorney in 2008.\n\n\n\nAs District Attorney\, Ligon built one of the most respected prosecutor's offices in Texas. He created specialized divisions focused on public corruption\, child exploitation\, human trafficking\, domestic violence\, and major crimes. He implemented numerous innovations\, including a 24/7 on-call prosecutor system\, a digital forensics unit\, and one of the state's earliest Veterans Treatment Courts.\n\n\n\nThroughout his career\, Senator Ligon has worked closely with lawmakers\, law enforcement agencies\, and community leaders to strengthen public safety and hold criminals accountable.\n\n\n\nBrett and his wife\, Shannon\, have been married for 33 years. Guided by their faith\, they have raised two children\, Austin and Morgan\, with a steadfast commitment to family and service. A Montgomery County resident\, Senator Ligon remains deeply committed to serving the people of Southeast Texas and continuing the fight to preserve the freedoms and values that make Texas exceptional.\n\n\n\n\n\nFeatured Caterer\n\nThe Rusty Buckle\n\n\n\nPassed Appetizer\n\n\n	Candied Bacon Over Jalepeno Slaw\n\n\n\nLunch Buffet\n\n\n	Sliced Brisket\n	BBQ Chicken\n	"Kicked Up" Pinto Beans\n	Potato Salad\n\n\n\nDessert\n\n\n	Homemade Lemon Cooler Cookies\n\n\n\n\n\nParking
