According to texastribune.org People of color made up 95% of Texas’ population growth, and the Hispanic and white populations are nearly equal in size. But white voters will have disproportionate control of elections under the state’s new political maps.

Building better communities can sometimes be a challenging task. You have to implement health care rules and regulations that benefit us all and cultivate relationships that can get the job done. It starts with neighborhood involvement and business outreach. Each one of us has a prominent place in our neighborhoods. So let's start today and make some changes.

Today's guest today is Jane Hope Hamilton, a candidate in the May 24th runoff primary for the Democratic nomination to succeed Eddie Bernice Johnson as Representative to the US Congress from Texas’ 30th Congressional District. Jane Hamilton’s resumé shows deep connections to Democratic politics in the state of Texas: she has served in key staff and advisory positions for Texas House Representative Helen Giddings, for US Congressman Representative Martin Frost, and as Campaign Manager for Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins. She served as both Campaign Manager and as Chief of Staff for US Congressman Marc Veasey from Texas’ 33rd District. As if that isn’t enough, Jane somehow found time to serve on the Boards of numerous civic and educational organizations, including Angie’s List, the Dallas County Election Advisory Council, and the Texas Justice & Education Fund. Jane is the Founder and current President of the Barbara Jordan Leadership Institute, an organization I especially want to ask about during the next hour.

“With more than two decades of experience in public policy, electoral politics, and community organizing, Jane Hamilton’s entire career centers around Progressive Activism for the benefit of underserved communities. She has been encouraged to run for Texas’ 30th Congressional Seat by a stellar cast of business, religious, and civic leaders as well as by key elected officials.
