I am committed to codifying Roe v. Wade into federal law, ensuring that everyone has protected access to abortion and reproductive healthcare, free from political interference or state-level restrictions. No one should be denied care or autonomy over their own body, and I will fight to make these rights a reality for all.

Rural areas have been left with aging, unreliable electrical grids and high energy costs, limiting opportunities for growth and resilience. But rural Texas is rich in renewable resources—sun, wind, and biomass—that can power a new era of economic development and independence. By investing in local, community-owned renewable energy projects, we can lower electricity bills, create good jobs, and ensure that the benefits of energy production stay in our communities rather than flowing to distant corporate shareholders. I am committed to ensuring that landowners are fairly compensated and included in planning decisions. We must also address local concerns about the impact of renewable energy on farmland and property rights through transparent, community-driven processes.

In Texas, landowners have vested rights to groundwater and minerals under the rule of capture, but state policy and corporate interests have too often tilted the playing field toward large-scale extraction and export, rather than sustainable local use. We must protect the rights of family farmers and rural landowners, ensuring that water and mineral wealth benefit local communities—not just the top agribusinesses or energy conglomerates. This means supporting local water boards, fair regulation, and environmental stewardship to safeguard these resources for future generations.

Every job in America must pay a living wage so every family can thrive.

It's time to end the rigged system where agribusiness profits while family farmers struggle, and instead guarantee that those who care for our land and produce our food are paid what their work is truly worth. By capping subsidies for the largest operations and redirecting support to small, sustainable farms, we can cut taxpayer costs, restore market fairness, and build a resilient agricultural system that benefits everyone—not just the biggest players.

Our democracy is strongest when every voice is heard and every person has a seat at the table. I am running for Congress because I believe in the promise of our community and the strength we find when we come together—across differences, across generations, and across the challenges we face. Together, we can build a future where opportunity is not a privilege, but a promise kept to every Texan.
