In Their Words
What they have said, on the record
“If you have fought for our children's health in the shadow of industry, if you have fought for our immigrant community to live in safety and with dignity, then you know me. I have been in this fight for 15 years. I have advocated, organized, and marched right alongside you.”
“Leticia came to this country as an immigrant, raised by parents who worked tirelessly as farm laborers. As they struggled to ensure their children not only survived but thrived, they instilled in them enduring values of faith, hard work, and family and community unity.”
“When my son developed asthma early on in his life, I became passionate about creating a healthy environment for my children to grow up in.”
“KEEPING THE LIGHTS ON AND THE WATER RUNNING: From Hurricane Harvey, Winter Storm Uri (where 250 persons lost their lives) to the Derecho, I want to ensure that our infrastructure is prepared to take care of you. From aging pipes, power lines, freeways and more, our district should feel safe in their homes.”
“MAKING GOVERNMENT WORK FOR YOU: My degree from the University of St. Thomas is in Finance and Economics. I am your candidate who can balance a check book and keeps up with the dollars and cents. Our government has been feeding subsidies to large corporations all while hardworking families foot the bill, and that needs to end.”
“EVERYDAY AFFORDABILITY: With rising costs of everyday necessities like groceries, families are having to make hard decisions about big investments like healthcare and housing. I am ready to bring bread back to the table for you and your family.”
