Pleased to Report

Since Barbara Ann began her campaign for Texas Attorney General, she has raised over $619,000 and was honored to raise over $330,000 for the last reporting period.   Your early and continued support allowed us to prevent a primary challenger and we are picking up momentum as we head into 2010. Thank you for your generous support.

From the beginning, Barbara Ann has campaigned to be the People's Lawyer.  Our incumbent Attorney General has abandoned the people in order to pursue his own political agenda. With your continued support, Texas will restore the office of the Attorney General back to the people. 

Tejano Democrats Endorse Barbara Ann

Barbara Ann has been building an impressive list of supporters. Her first major organizational endorsement in 2010 came over the weekend from the state Tejano Democrats.

The Tejano Democrats endorsement is vital in this day of Texas state leadership's attempts to deny our shared heritage.  The State Board of Education's successful efforts for preliminary curriculum standards would teach as history the rallying cries of the Heritage Foundation and the Moral Majority.  The Board majority would intentionally exclude the historic significance of the GI Forum in promoting respect for veterans and the civil rights and education roles of LULAC and MALDEF.

This is a gross politicization of education as the Governor refuses Texas participation in Race to the Top funding applications.   Where is the Attorney General speaking out about these injustices? He is silent. The Attorney General is protecting and promoting himself, pursuing his own political agenda instead of doing his job and protecting Texas.  He claims great power to sue for federal funds for Texas but has never exercised this power in the areas where Texas has remained a net donor in our federal tax dollars.
