An Closer Look At Aaron Pena's Horrendous Voting Record

Early vote begins this coming tuesday. What better way to show the world Aaron's voting record. We want to keep this fresh. So you can remember when you go to the polls.

Cancer research fund: Aaron Pena voted against it.

He also voted to give the teachers a $1.25 a day raise.

He didn't vote on the teacher finger print bill

Aaron voted to increase his pension

Aaron co authored the new CHIP expansion bill. He also cut funding from it.

Aaron is short 10 million dollars on the UTPA find arts center. That's why he doesn't bring it up.

What other people are saying about the new CHIP expansion bill?

Aaron did not cast a vote to ban gays and lesbians from becoming foster parents.

Aaron said he was the one that brought the UTPA wellness center to Edinburg. That was a lie. It was the students who voted for it.

Aaron Pena did not co author a bill to increase minimum wage.

Aaron was able to bring 750,000 to the Edinburg Museum. Now, the Museum doesn't want the money. To much red tape.

Aaron Pena was nowhere to be found when the house lemon law was on the floor of the house.

Aaron was absent 16 times on the voter id bill.

Aaron was nowhere to be found when the college tuition freeze bill to the floor

Aaron was nowhere to be found when a HB was proposed to tie in the legislature pension into the teacher salary.

Aaron took money from electricity companies that keep raising your monthly fees.

Aaron cut 10,758 hidalgo county kids from insurance

Aaron voted on the jail out free card.

Aaron voted on the three to four yr term on school board members.

Let's not forget the $50,000 Craddick gave to buy his support.

Bob Perry also buying Aaron's support

Let's not forget the only reason Aaron is running for re election. It's to claim his 50,000 a year retirement and health benefits for him an his family.

It's pretty ironic. He cuts everything for us. Now, he expects us to give him his retirement. How Sad!

On monday we will endorse candidates so stay tuned!
