Strong Schools.
Equal Rights.
Real Change.
Harold Dutton has stood with Republicans on anti-LGBTQ legislation and opened the door for their takeover of Houston’s schools. He’s taken money from billionaire Trump donors and corporate interests, putting their priorities above the needs of our community.
I believe District 142 deserves a representative who cannot be bought or pressured by special interests. I will fight for progress you can count on, protecting our civil rights, standing up for equality, defending voting rights, and keeping big money out of our politics.
Harold Dutton authored the law that allowed Austin politicians to seize control of Houston ISD, against the wisdom of teachers, parents and students.
I believe our schools belong to us, to parents, teachers, and the neighborhoods they serve. I will fight to end the state takeover, restore your right to a voice in your schools, and ensure every child in our community has access to a strong, well-funded public education.
Harold Dutton has failed to deliver for our community. While families struggle to get by, he’s chosen to side with wealthy donors and Austin insiders who don’t understand our needs.
I will work to bring real opportunity back to District 142. That means investing in small businesses, supporting local entrepreneurs, and creating good-paying jobs that allow families to thrive. I will fight for fair wages, affordable healthcare, and economic development that lifts up every corner of our district not just the wealthy few.
I’m running for State Representative because I believe public service is about meeting people where they are and fighting for their needs.
For years, I’ve served this community as a minister and by operating a food pantry that feeds families who are struggling to make ends meet. That work has shown me both the strength of our neighbors and the failures of a system that too often leaves people behind.
I carry those stories with me into this campaign, because District 142 deserves a representative who puts service before politics, someone who will fight every day for our schools, our rights, and real opportunity for every family.
