Julie Clark, Candidate for Texas’ 23rd District 

One Republican political hopeful is already brandishing her big guns and taking aim at the congressman in Texas’ 23rd District, U.S. Rep. Tony Gonzales. Small business owner and “accomplished health industry leader” Julie Clark announced in a March press release the unveiling of what her campaign is gearing up to duke it out with Gonzales, whom she accuses of just not being conservative enough. “Julie Clark is 100% pro-gun, 100% pro-life and 100% pro-Texas,” the narrator says in ads running on Clark’s behalf. “It’s time we take out the RINOs and replace them with real American patriots.”

Rep. Tony Gonzales was censured by the state’s GOP in early March. The Republican Party was displeased that Gonzales had voted to safeguard same-sex marriage protections at the federal level, and that he voted last year in favor of more gun restrictions. Clark is coming to speak to SA TEA Party Patriots about legislative items affecting Texans in general and her battle with Gonzales.

We’ll have the coffee pot going and light refreshments out on the table. You have an open invitation to come join us for Facts and Fellowship. Our mission is to educate and motivate our fellow citizens to become involved at all levels of government, especially in our own “backyard”

FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY INDEX

The Fiscal Responsibility Index is a measurement of how lawmakers perform on size and role of government issues. Texans for Fiscal Responsibility uses exemplar votes on core budget and free enterprise issues that demonstrate legislators’ governing philosophy.

The public — including lawmakers — are notified in advance of TFR’s position on the issues to be rated, and prior to votes taken on the floor.
