Cristina Tzintzun Ramirez: Increase funding for Small Business Administration

Small businesses are the engine of the U.S. economy. In Texas, small businesses represent over 99 percent of businesses and 45 percent of our workforce. As Senator, Cristina would ensure that Texas entrepreneurs can succeed by increasing funding for the Small Business Administration to provide access to low-interest loans and other programs to support aspiring business owners.

Sema Hernandez: Break the oligarchy protecting Wall Street instead of people

Don't sell out. Have a genuine platform that represents what you believe in, but also what the people want. Do not be a politician, be real. Don't use your family as a prop. At the end of the day it is you who are serving, not your family. And we must work together to break the oligarchy that controls our government through an agenda that protects Wall Street instead of the people.
