John Abney Culberson (born August 24, 1956) is an American attorney and politician who served in the United States House of Representatives from 2001 to 2019.

A Republican, he served in TX's 7th congressional district in large portions of western Houston and surrounding Harris County.

He secured his eighth term in the general election held on November 8, when, with 143,542 votes (56.2 percent), he defeated the Democrat James Cargas (born 1966) of Houston, who garnered 111,991 ballots (43.8 percent).

Culberson won the Republican nomination for the 7th District in 2000 after 15-term incumbent Bill Archer announced his retirement.

His state house district included much of the congressional district's western portion.

He finished first in the Republican primary — traditionally the real contest in what has historically been a heavily Republican district – and defeated Peter Wareing in the runoff.

He won easily in November, taking about 75% of the vote.

2004

However, Fletcher swamped him in the district's share of southwest Houston that were added in the 2004 redistricting, as well as in the Bear Creek area.

Culberson had described himself as a "Fiscally conservative 'Jeffersonian Republican'... committed to Thomas Jefferson's vision of limited government, individual liberty, and states' rights."

2008

In 2008, Culberson defeated businessman Michael Peter Skelly with 56% of the vote.

It was only the second time that a Democrat had even crossed 40 percent of the vote in this district.

On August 1, 2008, to protest the House going into summer recess without discussing a pending energy bill, Culberson and other House Republicans stayed to make speeches about the energy bill in question.

The Democratic leadership in the House, which controls services in the chamber, responded by cutting the microphones and cameras.

Culberson used social media services Twitter and Qik to provide a live account of the proceedings.

2009

Culberson later compared this episode to the Iranian government's crackdown against dissidents who used Twitter to protest a restriction on foreign media in June 2009.

Culberson was challenged by the Democratic nominee James Cargas, an energy lawyer for the City of Houston, Green party nominee Lance Findley, and Libertarian Drew Parks.

2016

After Hillary Clinton carried Culberson's 7th district in the 2016 presidential election, Democrats began to regard the congressman as vulnerable in 2018.

Culberson defeated Edward Ziegler in the Republican primary with 76% of the vote.

Lizzie Pannill Fletcher was the Democratic nominee and defeated him in the general election by a 52.3% to 47.7% margin.

Three years after the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN) had been dissolved, Culberson included language in an appropriations bill that said "None of the funds made available in this Act may be distributed to the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN) or its subsidiaries or successors."
