As I step forward to serve the unexpired term left by my mother, I recognize the profound responsibility that comes with this role. It’s not just about filling a seat; it’s about honoring a legacy of leadership, empowerment, and community service that she exemplified.

When @CDMenefee announced his candidacy for the same seat that my late mother, Sheila Jackson Lee, myself, and Turner have proudly served,
TX18— I was honored to endorse him. Chronicle’s endorsement affirms what we already know: he is the kind of effective leader we need in DC.
