    What's On the Ballot w/ Texas Attorney General Democratic Nominee Rochelle Garza

    On this week's episode we have Texas Attorney General Democratic Nominee Rochelle Garza on to talk about what is on the ballot and why this midterm 2022 election is important not only nationwide but also right here in the state of Texas.  Rochelle Garza is a civil rights attorney and 5th generation Texan from the Rio Grande Valley. Her parents met as public school teachers and together taught Rochelle to have faith, work hard, and that every person is deserving of dignity and respect. Rochelle became a lawyer for the people and has legal expertise in immigration, family, criminal and constitutional law — fighting for children, immigrants and our most vulnerable. In a landmark case which received national attention, Rochelle took on Donald Trump, Ken Paxton, and Brett Kavanaugh when they tried to prevent an immigrant teen, Jane Doe, from exercising her right to choose — and won. This case resulted in the reinforcement of reproductive rights across the country with the implementation of the “Garza Notice,” named after Rochelle, which mandates the federal government notify teens in immigration detention of their constitutional right to access abortion care without obstruction or fear of retaliation. As Attorney General, Rochelle will fight for all Texans. Rochelle graduated from the University of Houston Law Center and from Brown University with honors. Rochelle and Adam, her husband, live in Brownsville with their newborn daughter and their dog, Ramses.
