It’s Election Day in Dallas and polls are EMPTY. Local elections impact daily life much more than politics in DC or Austin. Voting took me 2 mins today and I was literally the only one there. Unsure who to pick? Reply w/ your area & I'll share my candidate analysis. Go vote!

Supporting @NathanForTexas for re-election is a no-brainer. He uses data and sound judgment to make good policy - instead of pandering to the poles of either party!
“Every day I’m on the floor, I am in the face of the Governor, of the Lieutenant Governor, calling out the bad stuff that pulls us down, clearly, effectively, but at the same time, my constituents and the people of this state need more than just words, they need results,” [Johnson] said. “Everybody in this state needs education. Everybody needs healthcare. Everybody needs electricity. On those three areas and many more, I’ve been able to deliver results. Read the full article by Michael McCardel of @WFAA: bit.ly/47786fI

With a $32 billion surplus, the state of Texas will not allocate any funding for teacher pay raises. Texas ranks 42nd in state spending per pupil. youtu.be/HW5NgrcoQ8w

The level of dishonesty from Jimmy Tran is disappointing. He's not a bad person necessarily, but it is a bad strategy. D2 voters tend to take "alternative facts" personally.
Hahaha on the day I tweeted this @jjtran accepted a mailer from a dark money pac calling him a D. The truth is Tran has voted republican too. I guess Texans Defending democracy don’t trust D’s like @NathanForTexas & @TurnerForTX. Jimmy refused to engage with me today about this.

This and every #MemorialDay, it's imperative we recognize and celebrate its undeniable Black origins, especially at a time when right-wing politicians across the country are looking to do all they can to suppress our powerful history. #MemorialDay2023 newsone.com/3853253/african-…

This is indefensible. “Only teachers are punished for a political fight.” Let that sink in. Thank you @kingfortexas and the other state house (and senate) members that fought for and prioritized public education, our kids and our educators.
HB 100 was my signature piece of legislation for the 88th Regular Legislative Session. I'm very sad to say that it ultimately did not pass! Below is my statement.

In the District 2 race, Mr. Tran continues to violate the Law and Board policy by campaigning on school property. He's done it so often and without concern for the consequences, that today, the District Legal Team called him to Cease & Desist and sent him the letter below.

Exactly. Thank You, @RonaldKirk16 for supporting Sarah!
Our school boards have been battlegrounds for culture wars. They shouldn’t. Please join me in voting for Sarah Weinberg for DISD

Even though more than 85% of our students are economically disadvantaged, Dallas ISD is projected to send $224 million to the state in recapture next year. That’s more that it cost to build the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge!
