A Message from Claire
Dear Residents of State House District 122:
You deserve a choice when you go to the ballot box and you deserve a representative who will focus on the real issues you face everyday, not issues that are manufactured by cultural divides. As State Representative for District 122, I will be an advocate for families and be a positive voice to improve our children’s education and health care, and to protect the civil liberties, human rights, and privacy of all Texans. My focus is on fueling our economy and building safe, healthy, and welcoming communities.
I have expertise in the areas of education, health care, and online privacy and security. I understand these issues because of who I am as a mother, a volunteer in my community, and as a professional. As a public servant, I will listen to my constituents, to learn from them. I will practice inclusion, decency, and generosity at all times; and I will take a pragmatic approach to solving problems, being open to real solutions no matter their source.
Respectfully,
Democratic Candidate for State Representative 122

Facebook TwitterAs a candidate I have had the privilege of hearing directly from many current and former elected officials at the local and state level, including our departing and newly elected county party chairs; city council members John Courage, Manny Pelaez, and Ana Sandoval; state representatives Diego Bernal and Ina Minjarez and former state rep Mike Villarreal; state senator Jose Menendez; and others. I don’t just listen to those in my own party but also pay close attention to my current state rep and now opponent, as well as other state elected officials. I have also contacted the precinct chairs in my district and look forward to learning from their experience working in our neighborhoods. But at least as important, if not more so, I have had and continue to seek the opportunity to listen to voters about their concerns and to visit with public education advocates, school teachers and administrators; public health workers, hospital administrators and health care providers; and others who work in and with our community.
