Kevin Morris (D)
I will represent the best interests of the residents of my district. For too long, our current representative has been more focused on legislation that will appease far-right conservatives as well as special interest groups, in order to get re-elected. We need a leader that will be accountable to the people of HD67, one that will be accessible, and that will put the people first at all times.
Our public schools need help. The state needs to invest more in our children, in a dedicated fund that is ONLY for public schools. Texas relies too much on property taxes to fund public schools. Too often, our schools take a backseat when it comes to the state's budget. When there is a budget shortfall, our public schools fall victim and the funds that should go to our children's education is used to balance the budget. School funds should be protected from use that is not related to education.
Kevin Morris (D)
When elected, I will push to make voting easier for everyone. The narrative of voter fraud is a lie that has been pushed by Republicans to pander to their base. While election integrity is essential, so are our rights to vote. I will push to restore bodily autonomy to women. I will make sure that our schools are properly funded and that our teachers' salaries are in line with the rest of the nation. Texas NEEDS to be a leader in education. I will push to make sure we are receiving federal dollars by expanding Medicaid and getting more healthcare for uninsured and underinsured Texans. I will push for a $15 minimum wage. Workers will want to earn more when paid more and it will fuel their desire to improve their skills and look for upward mobility.
Finally, I am passionate about giving a voice to my community.
