Owens plans to focus on the areas of making more vocational schools avail- able to the youth, as well as addressing Medicaid issues, which at times can be confusing to senior citizens. Owens is also placing a heavy emphasis on pro- viding homeowners with the information they need to protect their properties from being taken from them, and re-stimulat- ing the business environment in District 146, because he believes that it leads to wealth development and helps provide security to the community. Owens is a product of District 146, where he has served as a veteran, family man, businessman and activist. He and his wife, Cam, met in District 146, and established their first home, where they raised three wonderful children in the Third Ward area for nearly 20 years. Owens has been involved in the contracting industry for more than forty years and counting, and has been a charter member of the Minority Contractors Alliance of Texas (MCAT), where he oversaw more than $300,000,000 in federal dollars that were held until an enjoined affirmative action lawsuit was equitably resolved under his tenure. Owens is a lifetime committeeman at the Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo; a 2013 Grand Champion BBQ Contest Team Member and Pittmaster at Takes A Village BBQ; a lifetime mem- ber of the NAACP; Chairman Circle member of the Red Cat Jazz Preservation Society; a donor to the Hope Educational School District; Platinum member of the Ensemble Theater and a mem- ber of the Texas Southern Alumni Association. As voters in District 146 prepare to cast their votes this election cycle, Owens is hoping that everyone better understands the process of voting for him as a “write-in candidate,” and choose him to be the next State Representative for District 146, to serve the constituents in Austin.
