Priorities

  • Public schools deserve protection, respect, and real investment.

    As a public-school teacher, I’ve seen what classrooms look like today. They’re overcrowded. They’re underfunded. Teachers are stretched thin, asked to do more with fewer resources. And instead of focusing on student learning, schools are pulled into political distractions that don’t help kids succeed.

    I believe:

    • Public dollars should strengthen public schools—not be siphoned away through voucher schemes that benefit the most privileged

    • Classrooms should be safe, well-funded, and focused on learning

    • Teachers deserve respect, trust, and fair pay

    • Parents should be true partners in their child’s education

  • Working families are doing everything right—but the cost of living in Texas keeps rising, and wages aren’t keeping up.


    Groceries cost more. Housing costs more. Healthcare costs more. Families are working full-time, taking on side jobs, and still struggling. This isn’t about personal responsibility. It’s about a system that increasingly favors corporate profits over fair pay and affordability.

    I believe:

    • No one working full-time should struggle to afford basic necessities

    • Eliminate Pharmacy Benefits Managers (PBM)s to curb prescription drug costs

    • Safe, stable housing solutions grounded in long-term policy

    • We have to raise the state minimum wage to $15/hour. Period.

    Texas families deserve practical policies that bring relief not rhetoric.

  • Too many people are shut out of the decisions that shape their daily lives. When legislation prioritizes corporate interests or political distractions over community needs, trust in government breaks. Restoring that trust requires transparency, accountability, and leaders who are present and accessible.


    Government should not operate behind closed doors. People deserve to know how decisions are made, who benefits, and how their voices are included. Civic engagement isn’t just about voting—it’s about participation, visibility, and responsibility.

    I believe: 

    • Leaders should show up, listen, and remain accountable to their communities

    • Civic participation is vital and meaningful year-round not just in election season

    • Government should be transparent, so people understand how decisions are made and who they serve

    Our state government needs to refocus its priorities to its citizens.
