“ Harvard was the most intimidating experience. I felt so out of my league there. ”
I pursued education not instead of being a good mother, but because being a good mother required that I build a better life for my family.
~ Wendy Davis
I hope telling the story of how I went from being a single mom to serving in the Texas State Senate to running for governor will remind others that with the right leadership in government, where you start has nothing to do with how far you go.
I can say with absolute certainty that I will run for one of two offices: my state Senate seat or for the governor. I'm still trying to decide, but I do think people are ready for a change from the partisan, very fractured leadership we have in Texas.
I've never worried about payback. People are hungry for leadership that's not afraid of political consequence.
