Commissioner John Stacy to seek second term in Rockwall County
Precinct 4 Commissioner John Stacy on Tuesday got a jump on the 2026 campaign season when he announced that he will run for a second term – citing a strong record of fulfilling campaign promises and a commitment to continued service. 'I ran on a simple platform of being a full-time commissioner, curtailing spending and being a voice for the people of my precinct,' Stacy said. 'I am very proud of the work we accomplished and cannot wait to see what we can accomplish together in a second term.' Stacy first won election to the commissioners court in 2022 – beating Democrat Ericka Ledferd in the November general election, 6,334 (69.22%) to 2,816 (30.78%). Stacy said he has delivered on his initial goals and looks forward to building on that progress over another four-year term. Precinct 4 covers Royse City, Mobile City and most of the city of Fate. Stacy said he is a sixth-generation Texan who traces his ancestry to the original 300 settlers of Texas. He has been married to his wife, Amie, for 23 years, and the couple has three children.

Tabletop games industry fears losing big under Trump's China tariffs
TOKYO -- U.S. President Donald Trump has at times downplayed the impact of his tariffs on China, suggesting recently that children could have "two dolls instead of 30" if supplies run low at American toy stores. A multibillion-dollar leisure sector with legions of devotees, however, insists that this is no game. "If the tariffs continue indefinitely, our industry will cease to exist in its current form," said John Stacy, executive director of the Game Manufacturers Association (GAMA), an international group representing the tabletop gaming industry. "Many U.S.-based game companies will close or shift operations overseas and focus on consumers in other countries that offer better opportunities for them."
