Janis Holt, GOP candidate for Texas House District 18 has signed The Texas Conservative Pledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cTexas is under attack. We need to secure our border, secure our communities by supporting our law enforcement and protect our children from liberal curriculum like CRT being taught in our education system. Texas Conservatives understand this and that is why I have signed the Texas Conservative Pledge. I have championed these values for years through my involvement with the grassroots and I will be ready on day one of the 88th Session to advocate for the values described in the Pledge,\u201d stated Holt when asked why she signed The Texas Conservative Pledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cJanis is a very experienced conservative activist in the Republican Party of Texas. Her vast experience in Texas education matters would give Texans a conservative voice in Austin to fight the liberal public education agenda, no matter the Party. As one of the shining stars of Texas conservative women, we are proud to strongly endorse her to represent Texas House District 18 to replace an anemic pro-life and non-conservative incumbent and preserve Texas conservative values for her District and all Texans,\u201d said David Roberts, Director of Texans for True Conservatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
