Evelyn Brooks — Educator, Defender of Texas Liberty, and the People's Choice for Governor

Evelyn Brooks was born with a pencil in her hand. She was called to protect the innocence and safety of all children.

Brooks will give Texas back to Texans by protecting the freedom, sovereignty, and privacy of our citizens.

Working families are experiencing financial hardships and increasing loss of jobs. Texas deserves leadership that will invest tax dollars wisely and deliver real value for our communities – accountable, responsible leadership that puts Texans first.

“Efficiency and dispatch require government to operate according to the will of the majority, but constitutional provisions must be made to protect the rights of the minority.”
