Divisiveness needs to be met with civility, and wedge issues need to be approached with the core skills of critical thinking and cooperative problem-solving. Politicians need to be reminded that the hard work of public service is a privilege and is not guaranteed by PAC dollars or special interests. And so, Julie decided to run because she has seen her community pay the ultimate price of divisive leadership; East Texas ranks among the highest in uninsured residents, the highest in suicide rates and infant mortality rates, and the lowest in public education funds.
These issues have changed the landscape of our communities and have left thousands of lives devastated in East Texas. We can do better. Join our campaign at julie4texas.com- Expand Medicaid and renew access to affordable and effective health care in East Texas.
- Improve funding for East Texas Public Schools, ensuring our students and teachers know that State leaders have their back.
- End senseless gun violence through bi-partisan, common sense gun reform.
