I’m running for Lieutenant Governor of Texas as an Independent. It’s time to fund our public schools, restore common sense, and end the chaos and culture wars in Austin.

Independent - Texan - Candidate for Lt. Governor - Businessman
- For 35 minutes, a teacher sat in the middle of her classroom, holding onto crying students as she gave them strength And when police came to escort students out of a window, she held their hands to lead them out—not leaving till she was certain that not one child was left behind
- Dan Patrick wrote and passed the bill that has now banned all abortions—including in cases of rape or incest—in Texas. That is the immense power of the Lt. Governor. And when elected, I will use that power to codify Roe v. Wade into Texas law.
- In the energy capital of the world, we can no longer trust that the lights will stay on. This is what eight years of Dan Patrick and Greg Abbott have done to our Texas.
- As Lt. Governor, I will fix the damn grid.
- As Lt. Governor, I will fix the damn grid. Enough is enough.
- What we’re witnessing in real time is what happens when state leaders, like Dan Patrick, spend years focused on bathrooms and Chic-fil-a rather than actual issues of state governance like infrastructure and energy. Texas needs real, honest leadership now.
- Texas, I'm honored to be your Democratic nominee for Lt. Governor. We will fight in every county for every vote, taking no Texan for granted. And together, we will defeat Dan Patrick and take back our beloved Texas.
- 56 years ago, a Texan stood before before Congress and before the nation to proclaim: "It is wrong—deadly wrong—to deny any of your fellow Americans the right to vote in this country." LBJ was right then and he is right now.

- Dan Patrick wrote some of the worst, most cruel anti-abortion legislation in the nation. When elected, I will be the first pro-choice Lt. Governor in Texas history. Together, we can take back our state.
- Not enough Texans know that retired teachers do not have access to social security. Teachers are entirely reliant on the state for their retirement. That's why as Lt. Governor I will fight tooth-and-nail to finally give our retired teachers a cost-of-living-adjustment.
- The Lt. Governor of Texas is the most powerful lawmaker in the state. And as a lifelong energy expert—as Lt. Governor—I will use that power to fix the damn grid.
