Mikal C. Watts, 39, is a native Texan born and raised in Corpus Christi. He attended public schools, graduating from King High School after excelling both athletically and academically. Armed with numerous scholarships, Watts entered The University of Texas at Austin in 1985, graduating in just two years with highest honors, including Phi Beta Kappa. Watts then attended The University of Texas School of Law, where he again graduated with honors in only two years.
Watts’ legal work embodies his commitment to the ideals of justice and fair play that he learned from his mother, who was a teacher and his father, who was an attorney. He also learned the value of hard work and persistence from his mother, who attended law school in Houston, while raising four school-age children in Corpus Christi. As an attorney, Watts has fought with passion and commitment for average working Texans.
Watts’ belief in American ideals such as fairness, justice, liberty and opportunity for all has led him to consider a run for the United States Senate. He believes, like most Texans, that there is a lack of real leadership and accountability in Washington and that it’s time for a change and he is committed to fighting for Texans so they will have opportunities and hope for the future.
Watts is married to his wife of 14 years, Tammy, and they have three children, Taylor, age 13; Hailey, age 10; and Brandon, age 9. While they lived in Corpus Christi, they were members of the First Baptist Church of Corpus Christi. Since moving to San Antonio, they have become members of Oak Hills Church.
