1. Reject any expansion of voucher schemes that drain resources and lack public oversight. 2. Invest in public schools - We need to be ranked number one in world. 3. Provide real property tax relief that doesn't come at the expense of our kids' classrooms.
We need to fully fund the IMPACT system modernization. Our Caseworkers need to spend less time on data entry and more time checking on kids in Collin County and across the state.
1. We need to reject the extreme, divisive rhetoric coming from some politicians who scapegoat our immigrant neighbors in Collin County.

2 We should demand comprehensive federal reform that secures our border with smart technology and resources while creating a clear, earned pathway to citizenship for the hardworking families all across Texas.
1. We need to finally close the coverage gap by expanding Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act.

2. We must build on the federal Rural Health Transformation Program funds by creating state-level physician training tracks and telehealth initiatives that ensure Collin County's prosperity reaches every corner of Texas.
We should fully implement Senate Bill 6, which is the bipartisan large-load interconnection law so we can ensure new data centers play by the rules, including that "kill switch" requirement to protect our grid during emergencies.
We should pass bipartisan legislation that invests in new water supply strategies, including marine desalination and treating and reusing brackish groundwater, while finally requiring large commercial data centers to disclose their water usage so we can plan for the future instead of just reacting to the next crisis.
I support redistricting criteria that puts voters back in charge. I oppose any map drawn to protect incumbents or suppress the voting strength of any community.
The state's role should be to fund our universities adequately so tuition doesn't crush our kids and to hold them accountable for outcomes, but we need to stop the political micromanagement like telling professors what to teach, and dictating who gets hired.
The state should take absolutely no action targeting transgender kids or any LGBTQ Texans. Our job is to make sure every family in Collin County, including families with LGBTQ loved ones, can live safely with dignity and without fear that the state will intrude into their private medical decisions or force their neighbors to discriminate against them.
Affordability, everyone should be able to afford to live a comfortable life in District 67.

I am ready to work hard for District 67 to make that happen.
