John: I'm a fourth-generation Texan who was raised in Dallas by a single mom. My mother taught in public schools and sometimes even worked an extra job to get by. Thanks to her, my teachers and coaches, and the good folks at our local YMCA, I went on to play football for Baylor and in the NFL before becoming a civil rights lawyer. Then I ran for Congress to serve the community that raised me. I'm running for Senate because I don't want my story to be the exception. I want all kids, no matter where they're from or what they're facing, to have what they need to achieve their dreams. Will you chip in to help me defeat Ted Cruz and give Texas families the senator we deserve? → |
