Dan and Farris Wilks

Dan Howard Wilks and Farris Cullen Wilks, also known as the Wilks Brothers, are American energy industry entrepreneurs. The brothers established Wilks Masonry in 1995. They went on to found an early hydraulic fracking company, Frac Tech, in 2002, and eventually became billionaires. In 2011 they sold their 70% interest in Frac Tech for $3.5 billion. The brothers, sons of a bricklayer, reside in Cisco in Eastland County east of Abilene, Texas.

Political activity

They supported Texan U.S. Senator Ted Cruz in the United States presidential election, 2016, contributing $15 million to a super political action committee backing Cruz. They gave $50,000 in 2016 to the candidacy of Jeff Judson, who unsuccessfully challenged fellow Republican Joe Straus, Speaker of the Texas House of Representatives, in the District 121 Republican legislative primary in March 2016.

Personal lives

He is the pastor of the Assembly of Yahweh Seventh Day Church near Cisco, a conservative Messianic Israelite church that was founded by his parents, Voy and Myrtle, in 1947. The church takes a literal approach to the Bible, considering it historically and scientifically accurate, and considers homosexuality and abortion crimes.
