Early Voting Ends in Texas. It’s Down to the Wire

My Response To Senator Cornyn - Tiahrt Amendment

Dear Senator Cornyn,
I strongly disagree that harsher criminal sentences would deter the likes of would be fanatical terrorists and psychologically disturbed gunmen. In today’s age, where terror can strike anywhere and by anyone it seems imprudent of our government to restrict funding to allow law enforcement agencies and the public from utilizing critical programs that [...]

Obama’s short-sighted attack on Universal Healthcare

Bill Clinton Stumps for Hillary In Houston

Chris and I just got back from the Bill Clinton Rally for Hillary. The crowd was decidedly smaller than the Toyota Center for Obama yesterday, but no less energetic. In fact, it was a mostly younger and extremely ethnically diverse group of students, reflective of the UH demographics.
