Why I'm running for Texas Senate
Can I count on your support?
Friends,
With the Biden Administration doing everything it can to force its radical leftist agenda through executive orders and acts of Congress, Texas needs proven, conservative fighters to hold the line at the state level. With Senator Dawn Buckingham announcing her intention to seek higher office instead of re-election, I am excited to announce my candidacy to succeed her in the Texas Senate.
From my time as the lone conservative in the Austin City Council chambers to my advocacy at the Texas Capitol, I have a strong record of boldly standing up for our values and our pocketbooks. As a small business owner and a mom, I understand firsthand the challenges big government poses for individuals just seeking to make a living and raise a family. As your next state senator, you can trust that I will do everything in my power to ensure Texas remains the place we all know and love.
I am proud of my record on the Austin City Council and my community, where I have:
Lowered the property taxes for all of my constituents by passing Austin’s landmark homestead exemption
Fought back against liberal efforts to use taxpayer dollars to fund Planned Parenthood and benefits for illegal immigrants
Opposed an initiative to punish businesses who helped President Trump construct the border wall
Exposed frivolous government spending and advocated for increased accountability for taxpayers
Assisted military leaders in their modernization efforts as the Director of Strategic Partnerships for Army Futures Command
Encouraged conservative women to get involved in politics through writing the bestselling book Step Up!, appearing on Fox News, writing for national publications, and speaking throughout the state.
This Session, Lt. Governor Dan Patrick and conservatives in the Texas Senate delivered on Republican Party Platform priorities such as Constitutional Carry and the Heartbeat Bill. As your next state senator, I will fight to continue their work by fighting to:
Secure the border
Ensure the integrity of our elections
Preserve the Second Amendment
Protect unborn life
Ensure a reliable and secure energy grid
Fund the police to keep our communities and schools safe
