Real Texans want their kids to have the best education possible, not the one politicians looking to brag about budget cuts have left us with.

Real Texans believe in looking out for each other. We believe in honoring our mothers and fathers and keeping our smallest residents - our children - healthy.

Enough to using Texas as a political laboratory for testing far-right ideas. Enough to using Texas as a workshop for fattening the wallets of their special interest friends and supporters. And enough of politicians listening only to each other, rather than real Texans.

Texas deserves a leader who understands that making education a priority creates good jobs for Texans and keeps Texas on top.

Real Texans don't want any woman to die of cancer because she can't get decent health care or medical advice. Real Texans don't want any woman to lose control of her life because she can't get birth control.

If we can't find cuts in the defense budget, we're not looking carefully enough.
