Who is mo

---

From navigating the foster care system and housing instability to rising through the ranks of Texas politics, Mo’s journey is one of resilience, clarity, and deep-rooted commitment to community.

Mo currently serves as Chief of Staff to State Representative Lauren Ashley Simmons and serves as the Executive Director of the Texas Labor & Workforce Caucus, where she works to ensure working families have a voice in shaping state policy. Her work inside the Capitol is focused, strategic, and unapologetically people-centered—grounded in the belief that the best policy is shaped by those closest to the pain.

She began her political journey young, breaking barriers as the first openly trans person elected to student government at Texas A&M–Corpus Christi, where she later served as Student Body President. That same drive and vision now guide her work in the Legislature, where she’s helped craft major legislation, defeat harmful proposals, and build coalitions across issue areas.

Mo’s approach is always grounded in lived experience and honest about the stakes for everday people.
