We need to work on the program that provides legal workers for farms and ranches. It is so cumbersome and complicated most just accept the undocumented worker. happy to talk about it as a 3 yr active participant.

As a "civilized" society, we must extend our compassion to farm animals. They are sentient beings who are giving their lives for humans, so the least we can do is treat them humanely at every step of the way from birth through slaughter. Even better would be to promote minimizing the consumption of animals in favor of locally grown fruits, vegetables and grains.

It's the elephant in the room. How much immigrant labor should Texas agriculture employ, legally or otherwise? Perhaps the Ag Commissioner could have a program to match high school graduates or dropouts with farms to fill the gap left by deportations. It would build character.

Hey Clayton, My feedback is to flesh out your issues page. Go into more depth about the problems and be specific about how you will use the office to implement positive change. How are you going to help solve these issues? Good luck, Chase

Howdy Clayton, As part of your fight against Sid Miller, I think you should consider being more pro-worker and pro-unionization of farm worker communities. As we have seen with the NYC Mayoral race with Zohram Mamdani, you should be as pro-working class as possible to win this race. A lot of farmers are super rich, but there are way more poor farm workers than those rich farm owners. Please consider fighting for the working class and unionization of farm worker communities. If you want young Texans to vote for you, consider those who work on those farms- not just the owners. Thank you for your consideration, Kayte Weeks
