Kristian is centering her campaign around kitchen table issues: protecting healthcare, making housing affordable for working families, lowering the cost of childcare, more support for public schools and teachers, and job training. Born and raised on the Southside of San Antonio by a single mom whose family name she proudly carries, Kristen relied on school for breakfast and lunch and depended on Pell Grants for college tuition. Since then, she’s registered 10,000 voters in Texas, helped her neighbors sign up for insurance coverage under the Affordable Care Act, and managed staff and multi-million dollar budgets.
