Laura Jones is a lifelong Texan, Army mom, and small business owner who has seen firsthand the challenges facing working families. Here are some of her stances:

• Education: Special interest groups have a different ideas about who should and should not be able to access quality education. Everyone deserves access to quality education, not just the wealthy and not those that have certain zip codes.
• Individual Freedoms: Republican lawmakers are attacking many of our freedoms - from access to the vote to control over our bodies. Our representatives should be protecting our freedoms, not restricting them.
• Healthcare: Access to healthcare is a basic human right. The ability to receive care should not be dependent on a job or the amount on a paycheck.
