Issue Position: Improving Quality of Life

Issue Position

El Paso's hard-working families have seen our community grow and evolve. Work done by the private and public sectors has helped bring about a renaissance for El Paso, with increased quality of life and improved services. But we are still struggling with stagnant wages and high numbers of our population who are uninsured.

As your County Judge, I supported expanding your access to affordable healthcare through our hospital district, its clinics, and our own children's hospital; I also worked to increase wages for County and hospital district employees, whose wages were among the lowest in the region; and, the County worked to connect veterans with services they earned. If given the honor of being your Congresswoman, I will continue to fight for these values.
