Jesus Nieto
I have one more Harris Central Appraisal District Board of Directors interview to bring you, and that’s with Jesus Nieto, who is running for HCAD Position 3. Nieto is a UH graduate who has worked as a community organizer and a nonprofit director. He ran for Katy ISD this past May as a Book-Loving Texan’s Guide recommended candidate. He fell short in that race but his activism for libraries and against that Board’s anti-LGBTQ+ policies continues. HCAD Position 3 is one of two seats won by Republicans in the 2024 special elections and is the only one for which the Republican incumbent is running for re-election. Here’s the interview:
Here’s the transcript, courtesy of Greg Wythe. I will begin running legislative candidates’ interviews next week, with one more statewide candidate interview to kick the week off. Let me know what you think.
