Now Annie's list has joined Matula's growing list of endorsements.

We have been watching Sherrie's race closely this year and she has earned her way onto the list with old fashioned hard work and determination.

With 30 years experience under her belt as a public education advocate (former Clear Creek ISD school board member and teacher, now a statewide education consultant), Matula has successfully highlighted Davis' abysmal education record and forced this solid Republican district to re-evaluate their incumbent state representative, Rep. John Davis (R), on a variety of issues including his questionable ethics. And research shows they don't like what they see and are ready for a change.

With a professional campaign operation now in place, over $150,000 raised-to-date and independent research showing a message path to victory - we are excited to make this race one of our top targets in the final push this fall. And, as is our standard practice, once we determine a race is viable, we jump in head first with the full resources of Annie's List - including you, our committed base of supporters.

Annie's List is going to be doing a dollar for dollar match for up to $10,000 for the next 10 days.

You can donate online here.  We have to pick up 5 seats this fall to take back the Texas House.  Help make sure Sherri Matula is one of them.
