I’m proud to announce Leaders We Deserve’s first endorsement: Averie Bishop!

I’ll share more about why we made Averie our very first endorsement in her race for Texas State House District 112, but first: Can you add your name to support Averie’s campaign and help elect more badass young people to local office?

Averie is the former Miss Texas, a fierce abortion rights, racial justice, and gun safety advocate, and just 27 years old.

She spent the last year traveling 60,000 miles across Texas. And as a born and raised Texan herself, she knows what Texans need from their leaders.

Spoiler alert — it’s not abortion bans, weak gun laws, and ridiculously high barriers to voting.

These fights, the ones that shape our day-to-day life, are happening at the local level, John. And it’s the local level races that often need our help the most — especially in states like Texas, where Republicans gerrymandered and voter suppressed their way into a majority in the State Legislature.

A majority that did nothing after children were murdered at school in Uvalde. And did nothing after families were murdered while shopping at a Walmart in El Paso. And did nothing while people starved and froze to death during extreme winter storms caused by ignoring the climate crisis.

The bottom line is Texans deserve leaders who will fight for the people, not themselves. And I have no doubt that when we send Averie to the Texas State House, she will be one of the fiercest advocates there.

Can you help us elect more young people to local office — where the big fights happen — by adding your name to endorse Averie Bishop today? By adding your name to this endorsement, you're helping to validate and amplify the importance of young leaders in politics.

Thanks,
