Welcome
Hello, my name is Dora Olivo. I have had the honor and privilege of having my constituents elect me their State Representative 6 times over the past 11 years.
As a former school teacher, as an attorney, a community grass roots advocate, and as a mother and grandmother, I have fought to open the doors of government to serve the people and brought clear, proven results for my district and our state.
I have successfully fought to increase funding for our public schools, create more accessible and affordable health care for our families and children, fought for common sense solutions to minimize taxes to help our small business owners, and have held government accountable at all levels to protect our environment and guard the rights of the elderly and the disabled in our communities.
As an effective leader, I listen to my constituents- holding town hall meetings when necessary and I am respected across party aisles to get things done.
That's why I am proud to have the support of the teachers, environmental groups, labor, law enforcement, health care groups, realtors and many others.
In these tough economic times, we need a proven leader who can fight for our families and small businesses and I bring that proven track record in the legislature.
Whether it has been fighting a landfill expansion, working for quality education, correcting the unintended consequences of the TAKS test, protecting the value of your property, improving disciplinary schools, fighting for homeowners against poor quality construction, or fighting with you against intrusive toll roads, and much more, I have been there for you.
Over the years I have received many calls on many issues from constituents- ranging from child support, business matters, prison transfers, school issues and many other concerns.
I have always dedicated my office to help you find solutions and ensuring that our government serves you.
On November 4th vote to re-elect me, Dora Olivo, as your State Representative for District 27. I encourage you to get out and vote so that together we can fight for a better tomorrow for our families and communities. Thank you and God bless you.
Sincerely,
Representative Dora F. Olivo
Democrat, House District 27
