A Mom on a Mission
I was born and raised in South Texas and it's where my husband and I have chosen to raise our four children. As a former teacher and attorney for children in the foster care system, I’m running to be the first Congresswoman from TX-23 because our government should invest in the next generation—not play political games with our children's futures. That starts by tackling the out-of-control cost of living which is the direct is result of reckless Trump economic policies. As our voice in Washington, I will fight every single day for the issues that matter to the people of TX-23.
