Health insurance costs are about to rise, and that means less money for rent and groceries for working families.
Republicans chose political games over lowering costs. I grew up working class. I know that choice too well. Texans deserve leaders who fight for families, not party agendas.

27 years ago, I was a senior at East Central High School, working as a busboy on the Riverwalk and preparing to ship out to Marine Corps boot camp.
That decision changed my life and set me on a path of service that continues today as I run for Congress.

I’m staying in the fight for TX-35. After the Supreme Court’s ruling, this race matters more than ever. They may have drawn the maps, but we’re drawing the line in the sand.

As a Marine, my oath to protect the Constitution doesn’t end today. The Supreme Court upheld a map that weakens Texans’ voices, but we’re drawing the line in the sand. The fight for our democracy continues.

The SCOTUS ruling is a setback, but our resolve is stronger than their rigged map. They may draw the lines, but we’re drawing the line in the sand. The fight for TX-35 continues. Stand with us against gerrymandering.

My statement on the federal court’s ruling on Texas’s redrawn Congressional map:
We celebrate today, but we’re prepared to keep fighting if the Supreme Court doesn’t uphold it. Voters, not politicians, should choose their representatives.

Last week I spoke with local news about Texas redistricting and what it means for District 35. Republicans may have drawn the map, but we’re drawing the line in the sand. Texans! Not politicians should decide who represents them.
