1. Do you have a local Congressman who is a D?
Not sure where you live but that might be a place to start if you are lucky to have one. Their office might know of someone in your area that might be willing to speak.

Good luck!

2. Conaway, a person who had a fund raiser for delay. Does that
give you some idea of what I am working with here?

3. I hate to ask but how about you Texas House Representative?
Mine for example would be considered an expert at Medicaid and CHIP.

How about the local Democratic party for the county you live in. I know, I know you live in a red county but I hope you at least have a party organization. They might have suggestions for local speakers on this topic.

4. I am representing the county. We will have to go outside this
area. Last pres election, 75% repubs. I e-mailed State Party. Trying to see if anyone has any personal contacts/ideas. Thanks for helping.
