Let’s celebrate by empowering women everywhere.

We're going to get through the coronavirus outbreak together. If you are experiencing symptoms or are looking for more information, you can visit the website of the CDC or the Texas Department of Health. We are closely monitoring the situation and its effects on the people of Texas and our nation as we work together to keep our families and communities safe.

John,

Today marks the 100th anniversary of the 19th Amendment -- a major milestone for women across the nation.

Fun fact: Texas was actually the first southern state to ratify the Nineteenth Amendment on June 28, 1919.

Over a century ago, women couldn’t take part in politics, let alone set foot into a voting booth. We were told to sit pretty and shut up. But women didn’t give up and took charge. The suffragettes grabbed the bull by the horns and fought like hell until we got our right to vote.

Since then, we’ve seen Texas women go on to achieve greatness-- from Edith Wilmans as the first woman to serve the Texas Legislature, to Miriam Ferguson as the first female Texas governor, to Barbara Jordan as the first Black woman to serve the Texas Senate.

And the strong women on Team Fair & Square who are ready to flip the Texas House Blue in November. Women’s empowerment is stronger than ever -- and we couldn’t be prouder!

There is no limit to what Texas women can accomplish. Help us give our candidates the resources they need to WIN in November. Pitch in $15 or whatever you can to our Strong Texas Women Fund >>>

Thanks for your support,

Rep. Julie Johnson
