3. Rule of Law
4. Law and Order
5. Education
6. Terms of service
7. Business law
8. Tenant-landlord
9. 2nd Amendment

The only book I defend word for word is the U.S. Constitution and the Texas Constitution.
The movie that represents me is the 12 horse men they had a mission desire and duty to defend American’s freedoms and liberties by going after the terrorists
They are a Leader that has core values Honor, Duty, Integrity, Loyalty, and Selfless service. A leader that can not be bought. Bribe, or compromised that will lead by example. A leader that will fight to defend the constitution liberties and freedoms of every American.
I am a Leader that has core values Honor, Duty, Integrity, Loyalty, and Selfless service. A leader that can not be bought. Bribe, or compromised that will lead by example. A leader that will fight to defend the constitution liberties and freedoms of every Texas constituent. I be a Leader that will listen the constituents demands and fight for those demands. Their duty is to protect the constitution and protect the constituents’ freedoms and liberties. They need to be taking care of their district they represent.
I have defended the constitution for 23 years and my oath has no expiration date.
They should listen the constituents demands and fight for those demands. Their duty is to protect the constitution and protect the constituents’ freedoms and liberties. They need to be taking care of their district they represent
My legacy I will leave is I set the example for all legislature how they should lead by example and defend the constitution and Texas constituents’ liberties and Freedoms. Lead by example accomplishing the duties and responsibilities of a legislator. I work for Texas constituents they do not work for me.
The U.S. Army and i retired SSG from 23 years of service
Band of Brothers and the bible. Because band of brothers reminds us of no matter how bad of the situation you face in life you never give up the fight. Because I was a combat non-commission officer, and I took care of troops in combat and my mission was to do everything I could to try to bring them back home alive. While still accomplishing the mission you still had to take and put the soldiers needs first before your own. About how important it is for team work to get the mission accomplished. The sacrifices made through out history to protect and defend the constitution and every American freedom and liberties. The bible is my guide and reminder to always do the moral and ethical thing in everything I do. It the guide to have faith that everything will work out for the best through struggles in life.
Iron man
I like rock and roll and country music. So, I really cannot recall the last song stuck in my head.
I have had many struggles in my life. But I do not let the struggles stop me from pushing forward in life, I never give up and I push forward to eliminate the struggles I face in life. It could my struggles getting past my combat disabilities, it could be struggles as a business owner, and it could be struggles with life’s unexpected situation. I keep faith and know the lord knows what best for me through those struggles. I never give up and I never quit.
Currently, I believe they are fighting with each other instead of working to meet the governor constitutional priorities. The Governor and legislature have a mission to work together for the people to protect their freedoms and liberties.
I believe that it is going to take awhile for the two parties Republican and Democrats to come together to get priorities in legislation done as they are supposed to. Ensure that legislators are doing their duty to protect Texas constituents constitutional Freedom and liberties, Texas
Texas is a bicameral body of legislatures and what I have read about unicameral state legislature is that you can push bills faster and at a cheaper cost.
Yes, I do believe that legislators should have experience in office If our legislators had experience than I believe we get more constitutional legislation done.
Yes, I believe it is very important to build a relationship with other legislators. We might not all agree on everything, but we need to come together and work on the task in hand which is protect every Texas constituent’s constitution freedom and liberties no matter what party you support.
Honestly, I do not see much change from redistricting, and I fell the current way are election process is done. Is not fair for every Texas to be able to run. Like this redistricting this give advantage to the current representative in office. He already set with donation, has prior campaign supplies. Because this election only gives us 90 days from the time of filing to the early voting 14 Feb 22 to the official voting day March 1, 2022. When you are new running for the first time this really is a disadvantage to the new candidates.
I would be a part of any committee that my state party needs me to be apart of. I am running to get laws passed that will protect the Texas constituents’ freedoms and liberties. I believe the first priority should be the Border security.
I am running for office for the first time, so I have not been on a committee yet.
No, I can not think of any legislator I look up to. Because I am like any of the legislature. I am a Leader that has defended the constitution for 23 years. I have fought to defend American’s freedoms and liberties therefore I am a combat disable veteran. I lead by example, and I cannot be bought, bribed, or compromised
Not currently I do not agree with or plan to be a career politician. I believe to be able to prevent corruption we need term of service.
I have heard from any in my district that one they want the border closed, and drugs to get under control in their district. I basically hear how the Texas residence in my district are tired of legislature being elected and are not doing their duty as a legislator Protecting the Texas constituent’s constitutional freedoms and liberties. This touch my heart because coming from military experience as a non-commission Officer is see this as dereliction of duty by the legislatures. The Texas constituents suffer if the legislature do not do their duties and responsibilities.
I can not think of one at this time.
I believe that emergency powers should be left for the governor and President to decide when they need to use them. I don’t believe we should have to wait on legislators the vote on the use of emergency powers.
I believe that we need to all work to work together to get legislation done to protect the Texas constituent’s freedom and liberties. Being that both Republican and democrats will not always agree with each other’s Beliefs, but we must come to a compromised that is constitutional to protect the freedoms and liberties for both parties.
