- Our campaign is about making sure working Texans have the strong leadership we need in the legislature, and making sure we have a Texas that works for ALL of us.
- Everyday I see the needs of our district & state through my students and their families. Politicians in Austin have created a crisis in our public education system and it's time we send more educators down there to clean up their mess.
- In this district gives us the chance to elect a strong Democrat, someone who can represent the diversity of Dallas and actually move the needle on our policies and messaging to help lead our party forward. We need progressive Texas values back in the capitol.
