Positions
LiberalConservative
Economy & Taxes
Supports pro-business, pro-industry economic policies and aligns with Republican/Trump economic priorities; emphasizes protecting and growing regional industry and infrastructure. Campaign materials and reporting describe priorities that favor supporting industry and unleashing private-sector economic growth rather than proposing new progressive tax increases. She has proposed using county revenues to fund expanded law enforcement staffing, indicating willingness to increase local spending on public safety within a pro-business framework.
Abortion & Reproductive Rights
The candidate has not taken a clear, public position supporting or opposing statewide abortion restrictions; she has declined to stake out a detailed stance on Texas’ abortion ban while saying the county judge has limited authority over state abortion law and opposing use of county funds to transport people out of state for abortions. Campaign opponents have accused her of supporting the state ban, but those claims were not substantiated by a direct statement of support from the candidate.

Climate & Energy
Supports protecting and promoting the petrochemical and energy industries as economic engines for Texas and emphasizes investing in infrastructure to sustain American industrial and technological leadership. No public campaign materials located that endorse aggressive emissions targets, Green New Deal–style legislation, or carbon-pricing measures. Policy language focuses on energy/industrial support, infrastructure, and economic priorities rather than regulatory climate action.
