TX State SenateDistrict 19
Democrat
Gutierrez represents Uvalde and has spent years pushing gun-safety bills in the Legislature after the 2022 Robb Elementary shooting, even as nearly all of them were blocked.
He voted against the 2025 school voucher law, warning it would drain money from rural public schools like the ones in his district.
Gutierrez’s take on Texas values
Gutierrez was one of the Senate Democrats who opposed the 2021 voting law (it passed the Senate 18-13) that added mail-ballot ID requirements and restricted voter assistance. [MALDEF; KVUE]
