In addition to the contested Democratic primary in HD131, there is also one in HD145, where Rep. Carol Alvarado is in her third term. Rep. Alvarado was of course a three-term City Council member in District I prior to her election to the Legislature, experience that served her on the Urban Affairs, Public Health, and Redistricting committees. She is also serving on the House Select Committee on Transparency in State Agency Operations, which among other things is investigating UT Regent Wallace Hall. Rep. Alvarado has also been a strong defender of reproductive freedom in the House, which is no small task. I was redistricted into HD145 in 2011, and while I was sad to lose Rep. Jessica Farrar as my representative, I was and am quite happy to be represented by Rep. Alvarado. Here’s the interview:
