Incumbent candidate Representative Bowers was first elected to serve House District 113 in the Texas House of Representatives on November 8, 2018. She made history elected as the first African American to represent this district. House District 113 includes parts of Rowlett, Garland, and Mesquite.

During the 86th Legislative Session, Bowers served on the House Committees for Corrections, Juvenile Justice & Family Issues and Local and Consent Calendars. Representative Bowers champions women and children’s rights, juvenile justice issues, working towards eliminating the school to prison pipeline, and uplifting marginalized communities on every level of government. Bowers is celebrated across the State of Texas for authoring House Bill 3435, which declares March 1st of every year as “Texas Girls in STEM Day,” designated to highlight women in STEM and encourage and expose young girls along with our local school districts and organizations to embrace and enter fields relating to science, engineering, technology, math and the arts.

With a whopping 900 pages between its covers, there’s a lot in Project 2025, and lots to talk about. All of it concerning. Our chief administrative officer, Jeff Bell, sat down with two more of our endorsed candidates to take a deep dive into this document and what it could mean for the future of our communities and our selves.
