Commissioner Boatler has dedicated his life to serving this community with integrity, strength, and a commitment to conservative values. His endorsement means a great deal to me, and I’m grateful for his trust.

I’m running to represent the people of Amarillo with the same kind of dedication and transparency that Commissioner Boatler has shown throughout his career. Together, we can continue building a city that works for all of us.
