Our Campaign’s Top Issues

Put an introductory paragraph to your issues page here. It could be about specific key issues your campaign is focusing on or your campaign’s more general mission and approach.

  • Affordability
  • Public school funding
  • Healthcare Access and Cost
  • Small Businesses
  • Freedoms
  • Veterans
  • AI/Data Centers in North Texas

Affordability

Housing costs are up.
Insurance is up.
Childcare is up.
Groceries and gas are up.

Texans paychecks are not keeping up.

Public school funding

On day 1, I intend to introduce legislation to:
1. Stop subsidizing private school for the wealthy with our public dollars.
2. Fully fund public schools

Healthcare Access and Cost

Texas currently has the highest uninsured rate in the nation, nearly double the national average.

This is in large part because the state has not implemented Medicaid expansion.

The long-term solution is universal health care -- not health insurance but health care -- for all Americans.

Small Businesses

It's in Texans' best interest to invest in Texas small businesses

Freedoms

Freedom of speech, expression (including reading), assembly, and worship are under attack

Veterans

Texas Veterans served us; it's time for us to repay that debt

- Streamline process for applying for Texas Veterans Commission grants
- Public campaign to reach 

AI/Data Centers in North Texas

Ordinary Texans can't afford this kind of "growth"

- The money and benefits flow toward the corporations.
- All the risk flows to the people who live there.
