Campaign website

Hunter Crow's campaign website stated the following:

“

School Vouchers I do oppose school vouchers. Public funding must serve public schooling. Texas cannot simultaneously build an excellent public education system and finance private schools. local education budgets The state must substantially increase funding of local education budgets. Only by spending large sums on education and by making education a national priority with clearly defined goals and priorities can we reduce class sizes and teach special classes for youth with special and different needs, maintain and rebuild school facilities, which are deteriorating nearly everywhere, and modernize the curriculum. Furthermore, acknowledging and addressing the serious problems children bring with them to school will be as undeniably costly as it is essential. Public Education Curriculum Within public education, we believe in broad choices. Curricula should include instruction in languages, arts and sciences, critical thinking, citizenship, and the history of social movements. Students must be taught nonintellectual skills such as interpersonal relations, dealing with emotions, nonviolent conflict resolution at every grade level, environmental appreciation, and vocational training. They should be taught in the arts of democracy, including how to be involved politically in their communities. Teaching should focus on helping people to learn at their own rate rather than encouraging rote learning and submission to authority. We support the continuation and expansion of bilingual education. In order to place Texas education on a par with most other countries, we believe that all students should be taught a second or third language, beginning in the first grade. We encourage flexibility in the structure of the school day and how individuals are taught, going beyond the traditional concept of the classroom. Teachers must bring the world into the classroom, and bring the classroom out into the community. Non classroom learning and the use of nonprofessional teachers are encouraged. Educational experiences can involve community service, citizenship, and job training. Standardized Testing I do oppose over reliance on high-stakes standardized tests when such tests are used as the primary criterion for grade advancement, graduation, or teacher pay. Likewise, I do refute that the averaged scores from such tests can be used to make fair or meaningful comparisons between schools. Teachers Pay Texas teachers are underpaid, overworked, and rarely supplied with the resources necessary to reach their students. Classroom teachers at the elementary and secondary levels should receive professional status, fully funded health insurance, and salaries comparable to related professions requiring advanced education, training, and responsibility. School Principals Principals are also essential people in effective educational institutions. We encourage the state and local school boards to deliver more programmatic support and move decision making to the true grassroots level - the classroom teacher and school principal. Teachers Unions The unions that represent teachers ought to have the same right to call strikes that any other union does. Texas ought to remove legal restrictions that prevent teachers from participating fully in political life. Tuition Free College We support the elimination of tuition and student fees at Texas public colleges and universities for Texas high school graduates. Health in Schools Schools and teachers will continue to have a duty of care towards young people. Whilst we recognise that parents are likely to have a significant influence on their child‘s personal development, it is very important to add this to the Texas Public Education Curriculum. I feel that there should be regular health checks in schools and a return to school nurses with health personnel trained to work alongside teachers in schools. I believe that it's important to have strong and effective anti-bullying policies in Texas Public Schools. I think it's important to recognise the vulnerabilities of children from different backgrounds to the majority of pupils or who are LGBTIQA+ or have learning disabilities Environmental Education All Independent Schools District should be required to incorporate environmental education into their curriculum as part of a young person’s learning entitlement. Home educators will be encouraged to incorporate knowledge and experience of the natural environment into the delivery of an education suitable for the current and future needs of the young person. I believe that Independent Schools Districts should provide a support structure to offer advice and guidance on content and delivery for both schools and home educators. I would support an experiential approach to learning, encouraging enquiry, direct experiences of, and practical involvement in the living world. To this end School outdoor areas will be adapted where possible to safely attract wildlife. I believe that Independent School Districts should aim to become sustainable institutions providing a practical demonstration of sustainability and adaptive actions for all establishment members. Students should become involved in the development and management of sustainability programmes and audits. I would support new educational entitlements that shall include the opportunity for school students to learn about food and to gain direct experience of growing food plants. Every Public school in Texas to be twinned with a farm, backed with finance for necessary adaptation and insurance. DIVERSITY In order to ensure that the barriers to education which currently exist are broken down within Post-k'12 I would support these actions if elected. Regular professional development days for staff from minority or under-represented groups. Cross School District liaison teams to facilitate the removal of barriers to participation. Equivalent overseas qualifications to be consistently recognized. Introduce a requirement to monitor achievement in minority and under-represented groups, with a view to improving this through better opportunities and removal of barriers to participation. Full and adequate creche provision for all staff and students. A thorough trade union/management/ student audit of all Independent School Districts and charter schools ensure that they are fully compliant with the latest disability legislation, and funding made available to ensure that where issues exist, that they can be solved in the most appropriate way. Trade unions /management/students to monitor Independent School Districts and charter schools to ensure that they are compliant with the Title IX regulations ensuring that discrimination and bullying in workplaces is stamped out and positive duties are set. Food It will be a minimum requirement that all children are provided free of charge with a balanced nutritious lunch including local and organic non-GM food, free from additives. Vegetarian, vegan, religious and other dietary requirements will be catered for. Vending machines will only supply healthy snacks and not crisps, carbonated drinks and sweets. Independent School Districts will be encouraged to involve children in growing, preparing and cooking food. Not only will this provide invaluable and essential education in the importance of a good diet, but evidence shows it will greatly improve behaviour, quality of life and learning

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?

• We need an eco-socialist Green New Deal and a workers' bill of rights. We have no time to wait!!
• Get big money out of politics! Our campaign takes no money from corporations or Political Action Committees (PACs).
• More Voices, More Choices -- grass roots democracy requires Ranked Choice Voting!!

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

I am very passionate about environmental justice, an eco-socialist Green New Deal, together with a workers' bill of rights and the need to address/confront issues of climate change, NOW. 2. I am committed to social and economic justice for all -- that includes addressing issues of defunding and demilitarizing the police and granting civilian review boards subpoena power; legalizing cannabis in ways that create restorative justice, making up for decades of discrimination in arrests for possession; abolishing ICE; addressing systemic racism and standing up for the rights of the LGBTQIA+ community. 3. A single payer health insurance program on both the state and federal level, an improved and expanded Medicare for All

What qualities does this office possess that makes it a unique and important part of the state government and legal system?

This office is unique and important because the Railroad Commission regulates the oil & gas industries as well as coal and uranium extraction. This agency is supposed to be a consumer protection agency, but it has become an industry protection agency.

This is ground zero for Climate Justice - it starts at extraction.

What is the first historical event that happened in your lifetime that you remember? How old were you at the time?

I would say the first Historical event of my lifetime would be the election of President Barack Obama are first African American President of the united states

If you could be any fictional character, who would you want to be?

Campaign website

Crow's campaign website stated the following:

“	Industry I will support industrial processes that will be transformed to be more efficient; renewable heat and very low carbon electricity will be prioritized over the use of fossil fuels. I do support change to low carbon energy processes will be encouraged by incentives to avoid long-term lock-in of high-carbon technologies. I do support the use of the CCS infrastructure, established for power, will be encouraged where removal of fossil fuel energy is not practical. Research, Development and Demonstration (RD&D) I will support research that can used and funded into the best technologies and processes to address the energy system considering cost, timescale, governance and function. I will support Substantial RD&D that will be made available to promote large-scale cost-effective deployment especially for marine power, energy storage, building energy performance improvements including insulation, techniques and technologies, HGVs, CCS and shipping. Power In line with the move from fossil fuels, clean electricity generation will be substantially increased, based primarily on renewable, very low carbon sources with offshore wind as a major source, supported by onshore wind, marine, solar photo-voltaic, biofuels (with combined heat) (CHP) and hydro power. I do support the continuity of supply will be ensured by using the Texas renewable energy sources and a variety of storage technologies, links to other national grids and minimal use of natural gas to balance demand and supply, and consistent with meeting demand in real-time. Surplus electricity will be transformed into heat and gas and stored (power to gas), or exported. I will support carbon capture and storage (CCS) infrastructure, including a network, will be established to ensure decarbonisation of power supply by natural gas, assist industrial decarbonisation, and as a basis for future carbon sequestration. I will support change in the organization of energy transmission and distribution will be accelerated to cater for increases in dispersed energy sources, demand side management and storage. I will work to ensure that the phase out of Nuclear power, coal and incineration of waste will take place and also ensure alternative source are considered. I will support the use of Biofuels that should be sustainably sourced within Texas and the rest of the united states . Finance A carbon tax will be applied at a level high enough to encourage the shift from fossil fuels to renewables at the speed and scale required. Transformation of the energy system at the right speed and scale will require funding from general taxation, in combination with private finance; all fossil fuel subsidies will be removed. Incentives will address particular challenges in the energy system, including HGVs and industrial plant. Partnership between energy users and producers will be encouraged in order to assist energy management at all levels. Financial instruments to assist efficiency measures will be developed. Legislation and Regulation Regulation will play a large part in ensuring each sector of the Texas economy is energy efficient and to ensure the deployment of very low carbon devices and systems. Regulations will ensure all new buildings are built to the best energy and carbon performance standards and are monitored in use. Wildlife, landscape and heritage will be safeguarded and air quality improved as the energy system changes. Existing policy frameworks will be reviewed, and following consultation, will be changed to reflect the increased ambition. Fair competition will be ensured to encourage diversity of ownership of the energy system including public, municipal and community schemes. Energy regulation will be aimed at helping to achieve environmental and social objectives, and a fair and accountable energy sector. I not only support ending all fossil fuel subsidies and phasing out existing oil and gas operations, I would replace every high-paying fossil fuel sector job with a high-paying green sector job through wage insurance, retraining programs and early retirement plans. Demand reduction I support reducing the demand for high-carbon products and services, especially space heating, travel and meat consumption, Texas policy should encourage small families, a circular economy, less avoidable consumption and a shift to low carbon products, services and processes. I support drive change throughout society the state of Texas should combine a carbon tax and dividend with publicity campaigns and possible carbon rationing. For instance, it should require all adverts for high carbon products, including food, to carry an 'environmental health warning'. The carbon tax would reflect all emissions of greenhouse gases, not just CO2. It should have a progressive element to deter high individual emitters. Energy efficiency To improve energy efficiency the the state of Texas should: Invest heavily in energy efficiency in all sectors, especially in housing (including funding for retrofitting), industry and transport. Set energy efficiency standards for vehicles, appliances and equipment at the best currently available and tighten them progressively thereafter. Decarbonise the energy system To decarbonise the energy system the state of Texas should: Switch its sources of energy system from fossil fuels to renewables by changing incentives and by direct investment. Greatly increase the use of electricity, expand the grid and develop heat networks. To provide resilience it should implement interconnectors with overseas electricity systems, a smart grid and a variety of energy storage systems. It should also convert to less intensive agriculture and convert grassland to forest where possible. There should be transitional arrangements and compensation for farmers where appropriate. Finance I do encourage long-term ecological thinking in the finance sector the state of Texas should: Require full disclosure of the climate-related risks on all investments. Require all managers of pension and investment funds based in the UK to divest themselves of holdings in fossil fuel companies, most urgently from coal. I do support Capturing greenhouse gases The state of Texas should develop, and expect to deploy, systems to remove CO2 and other greenhouse gases from the air and from the exhaust from industrial processes such as cement making. This will require investment in Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) systems which may also need to be used with some power plants. R&D and pilots The State of Texas should fund R&D and pilot projects in key emerging technologies such as NETs, Solar Radiation Management and artificial meat.	”

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

I actively support These area of Public Policy when it comes to issues

Healthcare
Texas needs a public-monopoly universal healthcare system. Through the process of expanding Medicare and phasing out private insurance and hospital management, the guarantee of care in sickness and health made to all other industrialized nations of the world can become a reality for Texans.

Education

Education is essential to the liberation of society and a fundamental charicteristic of being human. The war on educators must be stopped and the privatization and resegregation of K-12 schools must be reversed. Education, from pre-school to graduate school should be a right and should be funded by the state.

Clean Energy

Climate change threatens the very future of our civilization. Texas is an oil-rich land, but this non-renewable resource can be put to better use than polluting our air and water. Energy should be a public utility and take advantage of our clean and renewable resources, like wind, solar, and geothermal. Ban hydraulic fracturing.

Business Reform

The upgrade to socialism will entail the consolidation of enterprises under public ownership. All business organization laws must be revised to recognize existing companies as free associations of equal partners with a fair division of labor. The state should subsidize employee buyouts of their businesses.
