Political Quotes

“I am fortunate to represent the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, where a blend of cultures has shaped our community, from the food that we eat to the traditions that we celebrate. The north Texas area has benefited from immigrants that now call the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex home. In fact, over one-third of the district I serve was born outside of the United States.

I urge each of you to keep these ideas in mind as the month ends and as we promote policies that directly impact our immigrant communities. ____________________”
