Eric J. Velasquez for State Representative, District 118 (TX)My name is Eric Jason Velasquez, and I hope you'll vote for me on November 3, 2020.
I'm the Libertarian Party candidate. I think people should be able to do whatever they want as long as they aren't hurting other people. Some people say Libertarians are fiscally conservative and socially liberal. Republicans and Democrats in the Texas Legislature keep growing the budget and handing out subsidies to privileged businesses. Meanwhile, they have failed to pass legislation that would reduce police abuse and legalize marijuana. I want to lower taxes and spending across the board, end the war on drugs, expand school choice, provide a level playing field for businesses, and promote harmony regardless of race, religion, or sexual orientation. Many Texans support these policies. Other states have made progress on these issues. Thanks for your support!
