I just filed to be on the ballot for Texas House District 47!
Honored to walk in with community endorsements, and with my husband by my side. This campaign is about real solutions: water, wildfire protection, housing, and strong public schools.
More photos coming soon. Let’s get to work. #txlege

Democratic socialism says the people run the government.
One’s a dictatorship. The other’s democracy with compassion.

This morning my team and I volunteered at our local San Antonio Food Bank to help fill the gap left by the federal government shutdown. At nearly the same time, the President decided to appeal a judge’s order to fully fund SNAP during the shutdown.

We had a great example in early 2024 in a Houston #txlege Dem primary where the terrible incumbent decided to pivot to run on being anti-trans. Her opponent was amazing at defending trans people while still promoting her priorities for running, and won.

Texas still very much has those laws in statute, just with a note indicating SCOTUS invalidated it. This year was furthest #txlege got in repealing the anti-sodomy law, and it still just squeaked through the House (with some GOP opposition) to go nowhere in the Senate.
