On our second installment of "Modern-Day Mordecais," Holly and Janie sit down with Texas State Representative for District 65, Mitch Little. Mitch is a strong believer who is currently serving in his freshman session in Austin. Among many other impactful platforms, Mitch is on the forefront of protecting sexual abuse survivors and standing up for the vulnerable. He is committed to being a light in the midst of a very dark political world, and we are honored that he took the time to have this conversation with us.
