Richard Andrews is running for the Texas State Senate in District 13. As a doctor and veteran, Andrews knows how to diagnosis problems and take action. He is seeking to “reverse the unhealthy policies of conservative Texas leaders who have for too long produced policies that benefit those who are already doing well economically, while leaving behind large segments of the population.” His policy goals include raising the minimum wage to $15 per hour, creating affordable housing and healthcare for all, establishing a rational and ethical immigration program, addressing climate change, legalizing recreational marijuana use, ending capital punishment, and promoting tolerance and acceptance of diversity. Andrews is a secular humanist and a member of Houston Oasis.

 

Donna Imam is running for Congress in Texas’ 31st Congressional District. Imam is a computer engineer and a tech entrepreneur with a career in technology. She is an active volunteer in her community, having served as president of a nonprofit that provides free continuing education to working professionals. Her campaign for Congress presents original solutions to America’s most pressing issues. Healthcare for All – scaling single-payer healthcare infrastructure to accommodate ~80 M uninsured and under-insured while maintaining high quality of care. Education for All – incentivizing students to pursue education in high-demand fields and serve in underserved and rural communities. Real Pay for All – paying working people so they can afford to live where they work, save towards the American Dream, and retire with dignity. Imam believes in secular policy.

 

Addison Perry-Franks is running for the Texas State House in District 83. She runs a thriving IT solutions business and is very active in her community. She and her wife have five children and Addison came out as transgendered in May 2018. Her policy goals include expanding Medicaid and making healthcare affordable for all, fully funding public schools and increasing teacher pay, fighting corruption in our public institutions, enacting common sense gun control, adding gender identity to anti-discrimination laws, repealing “right-to-work” laws and raising the minimum wage, legalizing recreational marijuana, and combating climate change. Perry-Franks is Wiccan and a strong ally of the atheist and humanist community.

 

You can see all our 2020 endorsed candidates here.

 

 

Sincerely,
