Issues: Immigration

The current political climate is very hostile to immigrants. Nationally, the Trump administration is pushing for travel bans and a wasteful wall. Here in Texas, we are facing SB 4, the show-me-your-papers Sanctuary City bill, while certain Representatives call ICE on peaceful protesters at the Capitol. On Council, I co-signed a resolution asking the Travis County Sheriff's Office to stop honoring ICE detainers, and I am supportive of Sheriff Sally Hernandez' stand against Donald Trump and Greg Abbott. I will be an ally to the immigrant community and will work every day to oppose anti-immigrant measures. No matter where you are from or where you were born, when you live in House District 46, I want you to consider it home.
