Stefanie Bord
Moving out to HD126, we get to meet Stefanie Bord, who is the kind of person who sees a problem and decides to do something about it. After getting degrees in evolutionary anthropology and climate science, she taught science in high school to foster environmental education. After moving with her husband from New Jersey to Houston and settling in the Klein area, she joined Moms Demand Action following the Robb Elementary shooting to advocate for gun safety. After getting no action from her Republican representative on a bill to raise the age for buying a rifle from 18 to 21, she became a Democratic precinct chair. And here she is now, trying to keep this seat out of the hands of Stan Stanart, who as noted in the Chronicle’s endorsement of Bord is as weird and out of touch as ever. We talked about that and more in the interview:
