it's hard to get 15 homes in a game of Monopoly. I don't know how Ken Paxton got 15 homes. He was impeached by his own party for taking bribes from wealthy donors all while he blocked our overtime pay and gutted our healthcare. This is the rot at the core of this broken system. It's why we can't afford gas or groceries or healthcare because the system has been rigged by billionaires and crooked politicians like Ken Paxton. Ken has spent his entire career enriching himself. I've spent my career working with both parties to cut your property taxes, to lower your housing costs, to cap your insulin co -pays. I have a legislative record. Ken Paxton has a criminal record.
