Charles Brandon Creighton (born August 5, 1970)[1] is an American lawyer and politician who has represented the 4th district in the Texas Senate since 2014.

Creighton is vice president and general counsel of the Signorelli Company, a home and office building development firm in Conroe.

[2] Creighton's first campaign was for the Texas House District 16 in 2002 (based entirely in suburban Montgomery County, near Houston in the southeastern portion of the state).

[5] In 2006 after Hope's decision to retire, Creighton joined two intraparty rivals, Dale Inman and Vicky Rudy, in the Republican primary.

Neighborhood associations in the area complained that the development would add to traffic congestion and eliminate a forest that has been part of Texas heritage since 1923.

[17] Creighton won the August 5, 2014, special election runoff for the District 4 seat in the Texas Senate, 67 to 33 percent, over fellow former state representative Republican Steve Toth of The Woodlands.

[18][19] Rice University political science professor Mark Jones said both Creighton and Toth "are significantly more conservative than Williams.

[22] In 2017, Creighton introduced legislation, SB 112,[23] which would forbid local governments from moving or changing memorials that have stood on public lands for more than 40 years.

[23] The measure would prevent San Antonio officials from removing the obelisk statue of an unnamed Confederate soldier in the downtown Travis Park.
