Endorsed by the Texas Gulf Coast Area Labor Federation, AFL-CIO
I am proud to receive the endorsement of the Texas Gulf Coast Area Labor Federation, AFL-CIO. I will always stand up for working families in Houston ISD, and fight for fair wages, workplace protections, and dignity at work. When working people win, we all win.
Endorsed by CVPE
I have advocated for policies that defend and strengthen Houston's public school system. This is why I’m so proud to receive an endorsement from Community Voices for Public Education (CVPE). Together we will work so all children have access to a high-quality public education!

In Texas, Efforts to Make Voting Harder Have Some Worried in Harris County
Maria Benzon, an assistant principal who used drive-thru voting in Bellaire, just southwest of Houston, says she's proud of those lawmakers.
"Sometimes, you need to shake up the system for people to be made aware of what's going on," Benzon says, "and what's going on in our state, and what the governor is trying to do, it's so wrong."
Benzon is particularly concerned that the legislation is deliberately aimed at discouraging minority voter participation.
