I’m lucky, our community has given me so much. That’s why I’m committed to fighting for rights we all deserve. We should be building bridges, not walls; because we are stronger together, because that’s real Texas leadership.
The educator in me will fight for expanding healthcare, the business advocate in me will fight for good paying jobs, and the lawyer and social justice advocate in me will protect and celebrate our diversity.
Every Texan deserves to have access to quality, affordable health coverage and care. We have a lot of work to do to make this happen. We can start today by accepting the $100 billion in federal Medicaid money, helping to provide healthcare to two million Texas families that don’t have it today.
Every child should feel like they have a clean, safe school they can go to, but they don’t. There is a growing gap in the quality of education our children are getting. As an educator for over 20 years, I am dedicated to fighting to rebuild and restore our public school system.
Everyone deserves a fair shot at success, especially working families. I’ll continue to fight hard for them, for us, from better pay to more jobs skills development programs. I will fight for equal opportunity so everyone can thrive in our economy, starting with HD 105.
Diversity inclusivity is very important to me – building bridges is not possible without this. As the State Rep. of one of the most diverse neighborhoods, I am proud to see our community members peacefully welcome and live amongst one another. I want to inspire all of Texas to do the same.
