But a new member of the Texas delegation, Rep. Julie Johnson, has all the makings of the next Texas congressional workhorse. It is no sure thing that Julie Johnson will be the next LBJ or Sam Rayburn, whose legislative powers are the stuff of legends. But someone has to be. Why not her?
She ran for Congress on a platform that included protecting abortion access at the federal level, strengthening gun laws, and protecting the Affordable Care Act.
Since 1991, Johnson has been an attorney who specializes in personal injury cases, family law and mediation, according to her biography on the Texas House of Representatives website.
Following her win in November, Johnson said she planned to work tirelessly in Congress for “a future where all Texans can thrive.
In her campaign for the congressional seat, she touted her record in fighting anti-LGBTQ bills on the state level among her passions as a legislator.
Representing the 32nd district, the former attorney and state representative brings a history of resilience and determination. A co-founder of Texas’ LGBTQ+ caucus, Johnson has been unyielding in her fight against anti-LGBTQ+ legislation and for advancing healthcare and voting rights.
