“I may be 5’2”, but I stand tall on the issues,” Caceres said.

“Today, when our families are pinching pennies and trimming budgets, we need leaders who are accountable for each and every tax dol- lar,” she said.

“I believe in basic government and that’s why I support a budget that’s lean not mean,” she said.

“I’ll make the most of every dollar in the county budget,” Caceres vowed.

For more than 20 years, Caceres said she has worked to break barriers and build bridges for a better commu- nity. Caceres said she has devoted her life to public service as a legislative chief of staff, election official, substitute teacher and fierce community advocate.

Having worked on issues dealing with the Port of Corpus Chrsiti, Texas A&M Corpus Christi, Del Mar, the colonias, industry and local commerce, Caceres said she knows how to make government serve you more effectively.

A strong, energetic leader,Caceres said she personifies hard work, accountability and results.

Incumbent Commissioner Betty Jean Longoria, the lone woman on Nueces County Commissioners Court, has endorsed her for this seat, Caceres said.

Longoria will retire after she serves out her term in December 2010.
