Brittany Black
for Texas House, District 61
Brittany is running because too many families here are paying more and getting less. Too many decisions that affect our lives get made by people who never bothered to ask us what we think. She's tired of the corruption that's become business as usual in Austin, tired of government that answers to donors and insiders instead of the people who actually live here. It's supposed to be government of the people, by the people, for the people, not government of the connected, by the connected, for the connected. She wants leadership that actually listens, that understands what it feels like to worry about a grocery bill or a property tax notice, and that delivers.

Denise Wooten

Denise Wooten is firmly committed to leading our state toward practical policies that enhance the lives of ordinary Texans. As a clinical psychologist with a successful 35 years of full-time practice and as an adjunct professor at NCTC for 7 years.

Denise pledges to work cooperatively for the good of everyone in her district and in Texas.

Jordan Wheatley
for Texas House, District 67
The son of a coal miner and a school bus driver, Jordan learned early on that working hard and following the rules is no guarantee when the system is rigged for the wealthy few and the politicians they keep in their pockets. He grew up watching that system eat alive his parents, his friends, and his hometown. Now, from the front of a public school classroom, he sees that this isn’t just his story. It’s the story of a majority of us being told to chase an 'American Dream' while a system built on greed decides our children’s futures before they’ve even graduated, guaranteeing a life of struggle to ensure the profit stays with the powerful and the few while the people doing the work are left behind.

Mihaela Plesa

Eddie Morales is an attorney, business owner, and public servant from Eagle Pass running for reelection to the Texas House this November in one of the most competitive districts in the state, spanning over eleven counties.

Zach Herbert
for Texas House, District 112
Zach Herbert is a husband, father, Marine Corps veteran, and personal injury trial lawyer. For most of his career, he's stood in courtrooms across Texas fighting for everyday people against the biggest insurance companies and corporations. Before that, he wore the uniform of a United States Marine, where he learned discipline, duty, and that honor is more than a word—it's a way of life. Today, he's running for the Texas House to take that same fight for fairness to Austin.

Now, he's running for office because District 121 deserves a pragmatic, reasonable representative that will fight for the residents of District 121 at the Capitol. He most recently served as a Special Victims Unit prosecutor in the Bexar County District Attorney’s Office. From the courtroom to the capitol, Zack Dunn will continue his work serving, protecting, and supporting families and children in our community.

He aims to deliver practical, common-sense leadership that focuses on what matters most: keeping families safe, lowering costs, and protecting taxpayers.

In the Texas House, he will apply that same approach to strengthen our economy, support public education, and ensure families aren’t paying more for less.

Tyler Smith
for Texas House, District 138
Tyler Smith is running to lower the cost of healthcare and housing, fix the power grid, and keep our families safe from violence. He’s taking on Texas Republicans who are way too focused on pleasing Donald Trump instead of keeping costs down for our families.
