Representative Marquez's Response to Previous Mailer Post
Your comments on your blog are correct.
In the past I supported Moody, with not only endorsements but with
financial contributions. However, my choice not to support him came
during this last primary. During my contested race, Moody considered
actually joining my primary and challenging me for my District 77
seat, a complete about face and without any provocation. The level of
trust I had for him, already strained for several reasons, was
shattered. Our delegation cannot move forward with these types of
actions.
On a personal level, I like Dee. I find him to be a person who is true
to his word. I chose to allow my support statement to be used for
these reasons.
These choices are about making decisions that support the betterment
of the whole rather than the personal agenda of one. Our delegation
has proven it can work together and make El Paso a priority. I will
continue to do my part for what I believe is right, even though it may
take sacrifice and I may receive criticism.
It's time El Paso put function above form.
