Events
I attend various events across the district and would love to have you come out and join me.
Check out our upcoming events!
I'm not hearing this on TV, and I think it's important:
When people 50 years from now look back on our time, I think it's important for them to see that the Trump presidency ended in disgrace. If he just loses in 2020, that doesn't look much different from the terms of Jimmy Carter or George H.W. Bush. And those administrations were MUCH different from this one.
Impeachment brings us to a much different ending than simply a president held to one term by a regularly scheduled election.
This seems like a good time for me to re-state my position on abortion. I believe that abortions should be safe, legal, and rare. That requires adequate funding for Planned Parenthood, since they provide the needed education as well as contraceptives. Bottom line...a woman must have free choice over her own body. Women's rights are human rights.
Alabama governor signs near-total abortion ban
The new law is the most restrictive anti-abortion measure passed in the United States since Roe v. Wade was decided in 1973
More District 24 sports kudos!

Great job, girls!
In 2018, the VERY most important thing in the election was for Democrats to take control of the U.S. House. Thankfully for the future of our democracy, we did win that battle. As a result, we can now see real possibilities for holding the Trump administration accountable to the rule of law.
In 2020, it is of course imperative to defeat Donald Trump. Perhaps equally important, though, will be to put Democrats in control of the U.S. Senate. Otherwise, the House will be unable to take meaningful action to right the ship of our nation. Obstruction will continue to rule the day.
For that reason, I am totally committed to ensuring that M.J. Hegar is successful in defeating Senator John Cornyn. In this cycle, there are enough Republican senators facing re-election campaigns to make it an achievable goal to gain a Democratic majority. Let's make sure Texas does its part by flipping the one seat we can control. Please join me in supporting Hegar for Senate!
