Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

• Access to Quality Healthcare
• Education as a Top Priority
• Local Self-Governance

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Texans need access to quality healthcare. We have one of the highest maternal mortality rates in the nation, we're last in the nation for insurance coverage, and those who are insured struggle to find in-network providers for the healthcare they need. Every child in this state deserves a great education. The state must pay its fair share to fully fund our public education system and stop pushing the burden onto the backs of local governments and homeowners. Our ability to self-govern is essential, but state politicians keep interfering in decisions that impact our local communities. Whether to offer paid sick leave or protect our environment, we must hold firm on our ability to do what's best for our communities.

Note: Ballotpedia reserves the right to edit Candidate Connection survey responses. Any edits made by Ballotpedia will be clearly marked with [brackets] for the public. If the candidate disagrees with an edit, he or she may request the full removal of the survey response from Ballotpedia.org. Ballotpedia does not edit or correct typographical errors unless the candidate's campaign requests it.
