seriously please don't donate to me anymore you've given way too much already. give it to a charity or someone who can make better use of it.

and yeah I'm running a bunch of ads. they seem to not get much placement though, apparently they are too text heavy. does anyone in North Texas know someone who can film and edit video? apparently video ads do well online.

Highlights of current civic involvement/accomplishment:

Laura Haines

My oldest daughter and I attended the Women's March at the Denton County Courthouse on the Square last year. The event was amazingly well attended and an inspiring experience, especially considering we were joining in solidarity with millions more around the world. I wore a pink hat a friend in Wisconsin crocheted for me, and my daughter and I both created and carried signs saying, "A Woman's Place Is In The Resistance" and "We Are The Resistance." It was right after Carrie Fisher died, so this theme of resistance and of women, specifically, participating in the resistance was prominent, and her beloved and best known character of General Leia Organa had become a symbol to many of us of hope. Having decided to become active in the Democratic party, going to local meetings and helping with phone banking, I half-jokingly called these activities my "Defense Against the Dark Arts" meetings (Harry Potter reference). Over the course of this past year, I've called my representatives near weekly, helped with Democratic booths, walked block walks for local candidates, and participated in a variety of town halls and protests, including protesting the Muslim ban /travel ban at DFW Airport, advocating for the removal of confederate monuments in downtown Dallas, and protesting the GOP plans for healthcare. I'm in the process of joining my local Toastmasters Club through Progressive Leaders of Denton County, and I am looking forward to participating in the upcoming Women's March Reunion.

political experience: star wars and harry potter lol

the one that gives automatic ROFR rights to employees if the company tries to sell itself? it's definitely interesting. and could easily be spun as investing in the Texas economy and Texan employees. would be extremely risky at the state level though because of how easily a company could move it's headquarters out of state to avoid dealing with it.

i'll check to see if there is some kind of federal law preempting states from doing that and get back to you on it.

Ah, I was more thinking of targeting franchises in Texas that could be headquartered elsewhere, also including small businesses that are only in Texas. Maybe adding it as a provision to to whatever business license already exists (or whatever that binds local franchises to local/state regulations)? Ignore me if I'm saying something obviously dumb :buddy:

Honestly love how on-point your more serious answers are in the voter guide. You're probably not that far from winning mainstream dems over. Many, many people are going to TLDR your opponent's walls of text.
