I’m running for Congress because District 30 deserves representation rooted in the lived realities of everyday people, not corporate talking points, political convenience, or systems that benefit the few while extracting from the many.

Congress does not lack insiders. It lacks imagination shaped by community, conscience shaped by accountability, and courage shaped by service. District 30 has a proud legacy of servant leadership, from the late Congresswoman Eddie Bernice Johnson to Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett, leaders who fought for the vulnerable and centered the people. I am running to honor that legacy and move it forward so District 30 continues to have leadership that fights for the people.

District 30 is one of the most racially and linguistically rich districts in Texas. However, our diversity should never be just a statistic; it should translate into power, opportunity, and equitable policy outcomes.

I bring an outside vision, one forged by organizing, listening, building coalitions, confronting injustice, and standing with working families. Not shaped by lobbyists, but by seniors choosing between medicine and rent, students burdened by debt, parents navigating underfunded schools, and communities pushed to the margins by policy decisions made far away from their everyday lives.

“We outside” is more than a phrase; it’s a declaration. It means bringing the voices of working people, faith leaders, community advocates, students, and the underserved into Congress and turning real-life experience into policy that delivers dignity, opportunity, and security for all.
