What education or experience qualifies you to hold the office for which you seek election?
I have had around 7 years of experience lobbying for Change in the Texas legislature, Including Blockwalking, Community Outreach, and Testifying in front of committees. Holding office is not something you can learn from a book. You have to put yourself into the situations that demand you learn from doing and from those around you.
