Who Alex is

Alex McMenemy, a 27-year-old Green Party candidate from Tomball, rides a custom recumbent bicycle he calls 'The Blue Blazer' and can play six musical instruments.

About Alex

McMenemy grew up in a low-income family as the youngest of three brothers, studied theatre before switching to accounting in college (which he couldn't finish due to money troubles), and now campaigns as a democratic socialist and vegan. His family's own struggle paying for his brother's cancer treatment shapes his push for free universal healthcare, and he refuses corporate campaign donations.
