    Steve Munisteri was raised in Houston from the first grade. His mother, Theresa Munisteri (née Grasso), who served as an editor for Rice and Harvard University professor’s books, significantly influenced his life and his engagement in Republican politics. He earned a Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) in Finance with Honors from the University of Texas (UT) at Austin, followed by a Doctor of Jurisprudence from the UT Law School. Steve went on to practice law and be a private small business owner in the Houston area.

    Steve became engaged in political activities during his teenage years, initially volunteering for the campaigns of Texas Republicans in 1972. With over five decades of experience in Republican campaigns, he participated in 13 Presidential campaigns. Throughout this period, he established the Young Conservatives of Texas, served as the former State Chairman of Texas Young Americans for Freedom, and held the position of former State Chairman of Young Texans for Reagan.

    In 2010, Steve secured his first of three terms as Chairman of the Republican Party of Texas (RPT). During his leadership, the RPT successfully eliminated its substantial debt, concluding 2010 with no outstanding liabilities, a record net worth, and an unprecedented positive cash balance. Throughout his tenure, Steve raised millions of dollars to support Republican candidates in Texas, co-founded the Volunteer Engagement Project that registered approximately 550,000 Republican voters, and initiated the Victory program to reach Hispanic, African American, and Asian voter. His efforts led to an increase in the number of elected Republicans statewide from 2,470 (45%) to 3,660 (67%), marking an all-time high. He focused on enhancing voter turnout, volunteer engagement, and support for Texas Republican candidates.

    In 2015, Steve announced his decision to join Senator Rand Paul’s team as a Senior Advisor. Steve served at the Deputy Assistant and Principal Deputy Director of the Office of Public Liaison in the Trump Administration from February 2017 to February 2029. He departed from the administration in 2019 to assist in the 2020 re-election campaign of Texas Senator John Cornyn. Subsequently, Governor Greg Abbott appointed Steve as his Senior Advisor, a role in which he continues to serve the state of Texas.

    July Informational Meeting followup

    July 26, 2024 by Mark L. Torrey in / / / / / / / /

    One of our best attended Informational Meetings so far, with a full house and some of us standing in the hallway.  Sergeant Miller spoke on the presence, dangers and Bastrop County Sheriff’s Office reduction efforts of the Fentanyl epidemic sweeping our County, State and Nation, and answered several questions at the end.  The biggest take away is being aware of the symptoms:

    • slow, shallow breathing or respiratory distress
    • slurred speech
    • loss of consciousness

    These can quickly become serious health problems, resulting in permanent injury or death. The next biggest is knowing what forms Fentanyl is typically trafficked:

    • pills
    • powder
    • liquid

    Don’t take chances and certainly DO NOT TOUCH anything suspicious, such as small plastic baggies with unknown pills, powder or other substances.  It could contain products that, in the smallest quantities could cause you or others irreparable harm or death. If you see or find anything suspicious, or encounter someone who might need medical assistance Call 911 immediately.   If you have any questions or would like further details, please call Bastrop County Sheriffs Office .
