This is a busy week for us. Tomorrow (Tuesday) is our gay marriage debate and on Wednesday, we'll host a town hall meeting with Sen. Eliot Shapleigh, State Rep. Dawnna Dukes (D-Austin) and State Rep. candidate Kelly White.
Here's the press release from Senator Eliot Shapleigh (D-El Paso):

I have heard Senator Shapleigh speak numerous times as I am from El Paso and he never fails to amaze me. The passion that this Senator has about doing the right things for our state is unbelievable. He is going to give an amazing presentation about his plan for education finance, and it would really be an injustice to the children of our state if we don't fill the room to listen to his proposal and find a way to support it.
