Biography
"I am a military veteran who supports legalization of marijuana for medicinal and recreational purposes. Specific to matters affecting fellow veterans, the federal government's strict regulation prevents military veterans from accessing marijuana, but instead prescribes addictive and dangerous opioids; contributing to the crisis declared by President Trump. We must end the ban so that citizens may access this alternative."- As submitted to the 'NORML Candidate Questionnaire' on 2/11
Comments
"This is my first run for office, but I would have voted in favor of Texas HB 2165. Our current Representative, Trent Ashby, did not support it."- As submitted to the 'NORML Candidate Questionnaire' on 2/11
