Gina HinojosaGina Hinojosa has spent her career holding corrupt politicians accountable. From a civil-rights attorney to a decade as Texas State Representative, she has led corporate reform, fighting billionaires and corporate interests while pushing the state to invest in our public schools, expand health care access, and lower costs for Texans.
About Gina
She was on the legal team that sued Tom DeLay's political operation over illegal corporate money — and won. She joined the Austin School Board in 2012 to keep her son's elementary school open, and ended up its president. In the House she helped pass the biggest teacher-pay bill in a generation, then wrote a $40 billion plan to fully fund public schools that Abbott killed because it didn't come with vouchers. In 2025, Ken Paxton sued to throw her out of the Legislature for standing up to Abbott — the court tossed it out. Now she's standing up to Abbott again, and despite his $100 million corporate-backed campaign, she's within a few points in the polls. With your vote, you can put integrity back in the Governor's office.
Greg AbbottThree weeks after graduating law school, a tree fell on him while he was jogging. He was 26. He's been in a wheelchair ever since — and in power for most of it.
About Greg
Abbott sued the homeowner whose falling oak paralyzed him, winning a lifetime settlement. He later became one of Texas's strongest advocates for lawsuit damage caps — caps that would have drastically limited his own recovery. He and his wife Cecilia, granddaughter of Mexican immigrants and Texas's first Latina First Lady, have one adopted daughter.
