Written By DG Montalvo

I am delighted to announce two essential appointments within our party that reflect our commitment to progress, environmental stewardship, and effective event coordination. 

“Please consider joining their committees. Together we are shaping a brighter future! ”

It is with great pleasure that I introduce Ms. Oller Smith as the Chair of the Climate Change & Environmental Justice Committee! As Democrats, we understand the profound significance of addressing environmental concerns, particularly in the face of pressing challenges posed by climate change. Oller's deep-seated care for green spaces and dedication to Keep Tyler Beautiful align perfectly with our party's values. With Oller at the helm, we can be assured that her efforts to inform us of significant environmental matters will be in capable hands.

Furthermore, I am thrilled to welcome Ms. Tony Johns as the Chair of the Events Committee. The role of event management and coordination holds immense importance in advancing our political efforts. Tony's extensive experience and unwavering devotion make her an impeccable fit for this pivotal responsibility. Her expertise will ensure that our events are not only successful but also impactful in promoting our party's objectives. Please consider joining their committees. 

Let us take a moment to express our gratitude to Oller and Tony for accepting these roles and embracing the responsibilities that come with them. It is their dedication that propels our party forward and strengthens our collective mission.

Thank you all for your continued support and unwavering commitment to all Smith County Democrats. Together, we are shaping a brighter future for Texas & Smith County.

¡Si Se Puede!


Hector Garza, Chairman
