Meet Jordan Hoffnagle

I work in the factories, restaurants, and small businesses around District 100. I know what the hours are like, what the pay is like, and what it feels like when the tax bill or the electric bill lands and the math stops working. That isn’t research to me. It’s my week.

I got into this race through the family courts. I watched how that system treats parents who follow the rules, and I learned that orders only mean something if somebody enforces them. Once you see how a system works up close — who it protects, who it doesn’t, and how little any of it has to do with your kids — you can’t un-see it. So I wrote the bill I wanted to exist. Then I wrote two more.

That’s what makes this campaign different. I’m not asking you to trust a list of values. Three pieces of legislation are already drafted: one to open up police body camera footage, one to hold family court appointees accountable, and one to protect people from their own attorneys. You can read every provision on the issues page.

District 100 runs from Oak Cliff through downtown and out east to Pleasant Grove and Casa View. It’s a lot of different neighborhoods and one shared experience: getting talked about at election time and forgotten the rest of the year. I’d rather be the guy you already know from the sidelines than one more name on a mailer.
