Ballotpedia biographical submission form
The candidate completed Ballotpedia's biographical information submission form:
| “ | What is your political philosophy?
I’m deeply troubled by the state of our politics and the extent to which it has deteriorated. I grew up in this district and have watched our elected officials repeatedly sacrifice the well-being and safety of the people in my community. As a Representative, I'm running to be a Representative beholden to the people, not to a political party, special interest group or corporate donor and will legislate to ensure all Texans have equal access to opportunity. Is there anything you would like to add? I am a first generation Mexican-American raised in Plano, Tx. I am a small business owner in the local residential real-estate industry.[2] |
