Why she runs

Mary Beth Harrell is back with another Kos diary, this one about why she decided to run for Congress. Check it out.

I see that David Harris and John Courage are on their way to Washington, DC for tomorrow’s Band of Brothers event. I don’t see anything on this in Google News as yet, but I’m hopeful it’ll get some coverage. We’ll see.

Finally, if you’re in the Sugar Land area this afternoon, Nick Lampson is holding an education roundtable at 4 PM. Click the More link for details.


Nick Lampson, congressional candidate for Texas’s 22nd congressional district, will host a discussion focusing on education with Fort Bend County educators, parents, and students on Tuesday, February 7, 2006.

The event will take place at 4:00 pm at the First Colony Branch Library in Sugar Land.

Nick Lampson wants to see Congress recommit to a strong educational system. He wants to see a renewed focus on math and science so our children can compete in a 21st century global economy. He will lead the way in making sure we don’t short change education while spending heavily on pork barrel projects like a $241 million “bridge to nowhere” in Alaska. Lampson knows that part of making sure this country can compete in the future is making college more affordable and accessible to our students. And Nick Lampson will work in Congress to ensure that our teachers are treated like professionals.

What: Discussion with Fort Bend County educators, parents, and students

When: Tuesday, February 7, 2006, 4:00 pm

Where: First Colony Branch Library Meeting Room
2121 Austin Parkway
Sugar Land, Texas 77479

    I was talking with David Murff, candidate for CD-07, about this the other day, and he’ll be there as well.
