AVERIE IS NO STRANGER TO SHATTERING GLASS CEILINGS.
Averie Bishop is a first-generation law school graduate, former substitute teacher, and past Miss Texas—making history as the first Asian American to hold the title. As a candidate for the Texas Legislature, Averie is stepping up to fight for the community that shaped her.
​
Born to a hardworking Filipino immigrant mother and a 5th-generation Texan father, who worked as a school bus driver, Averie learned the value of dedication and service early on. In high school, she co-founded an educational nonprofit with her mother, focused on providing scholarships, mentorship, and sustainability education to underserved communities. As Miss Texas, Averie traveled to over 100 public schools, teaching students to celebrate diversity and embrace the many cultures of Texas.
​
In the Texas Legislature, Averie will be a powerful advocate for fully funding public schools, overturning the abortion ban, expanding affordable healthcare, and driving economic growth for all Texans.
Join Averie in bringing real change for all Texans.

HOUSE DISTRICT 112
District 112, covering northeast Dallas including Richardson, Garland, Rowlett, and Sunnyvale, is one of the most vibrant and diverse areas in Texas. As a young woman of color, I share a personal connection with the over 36,000 women of color under 35 in our district.
In the last presidential election, President Biden garnered 49.7% of the vote here, and we came within just 300 votes of victory in the previous race. This district is Texas' top opportunity for a Democratic pickup. Flipping District 112 from red to blue is crucial for strengthening Dallas County's shift towards Democratic leadership. Let's make history together!
