For years, I have fought for juveniles and adults dealing with poverty and unnecessary fines and fees, parole reform, prison and jail oversight, mental healthcare for law enforcement, court representation for Juveniles, cannabis legalization, and more. As State Senator, I will continue to fight for a Texas that imagines and creates new ways to achieve safety and healing for all so that we can all succeed. Learn more

I do not support vouchers in any way, shape, or form-no matter how Republicans try to market them. Vouchers pull the dwindling state dollars from our public schools and divert them to private schools with no State oversight whatsoever. You can count that I will never support any type of voucher scheme, and will work to stop any attempts from passing the legislature. Public dollars belong in public schools. Taxpayers should not be forced to subsidize private schools for the rich. Learn more
