“My commitment to the American people is that I will remain focused on bringing true oversight and reform to our federal government and I will use every legislative maneuver in our toolbox, just as I did in Texas.”

“Social justice, protecting the right to vote and being engaged in politics has been a hallmark of my sorority since its founding in 1913; its first official act of public service was the Women's Suffrage March that same year.”

“I don't really care if you're MAGA, if you're just a general Republican or otherwise, I want to do the work and I can work with anybody.

“I believe in democracy.”

“Innovative digital technology is transforming farms and agriculture production across the country, allowing farmers to do more with less.”

“As a Black woman, I felt my looks would always be challenged, and it's a matter of always showing up and being perfect. It's not that I don't think that I'm enough.

“We need to invest in knowing who the good guys and bad guys are, and stop this blanket war on migrants. It's costing us all in the long run.”
