She absolutely hates Muslims, expect her to try enact racist legislation that that hurts Muslims while shes in office.
Expect her to try and strip healthcare away from Texans, as she has promised on her own platform.
Van Duyne holds anti-immigration ideology and supported all of Trumps racist attacks on asylum seekers from Central and South America.
Shes even against the Voting Rights Act and claims there is no systemic or intended voter suppression occurring in our state.

Another homophobic ad was launched against him today. Both Gonzales and Upton refuse to denounce the anti-LGBTQ attacks.
