Dear Tarrant County Friends and Neighbors I am running to fill the unexpired term for the Tarrant County Tax Assessor-Collector. I am a lifelong Republican, and grew up in a family with service as a standard, as my father, Si Robertson (known worldwide as Uncle Si from A&E's Duck Dynasty) was a career Army soldier who served in Vietnam, multiple places in the U.S., and many years in Germany. I attended Texas A&M University on a full academic scholarship, where I met my husband and graduated cum laude with a degree in political science. I was offered a scholarship to SMU Law School immediately afterwards, but life intervened and we started a family. I chose to spend the next twelve years as a stay-at-home mom of four boys before becoming a high school teacher, teaching 11th grade United States history. I became involved in my local community, and in 2016 decided to live out my ideals of political involvement, so I ran for and was elected to serve on the Hurst City Council. I am also involved in county Republican activities as the Outreach Chair for the Tarrant County GOP, as well as a member of Fort Worth Republican Women. As a city councilmember, I have seen the budget process and understand how spending and rates contribute to the tax burden on citizens. That’s why I voted to reduce the tax rate in Hurst each year. I know that property taxes are the number one concern among taxpayers, and I want to help address that. My first action as Tax Assessor would be to return 25% of my salary back to the county and its citizens, as a show of good faith in my conservative belief that the money belongs to the taxpayers, not to government. I also believe that the Tax Assessor should use their powerful voice to speak up for the people, and demand real solutions for our ever increasing property taxes. I would love to earn your support.
