Biography

The simple fact is no one will fight harder than Jolanda Jones to stop Republicans from taking away our social security, our public schools, our health care, our constitutional rights, and more.

Jolanda is the only candidate in this race who has fought for our families in the legislature, in the courtroom, on the City Council, and on the School Board.

Jolanda has worked on behalf of LGBTQ+ people for decades. As the first openly LGBTQ+ Black representative elected to the Texas House, she helped pass the bill to repeal the sodomy law. She vehemently fought against the multitude of anti-trans legislation – and she won’t stop fighting until they are all repealed.

In Congress, Jolanda will fight to stop Trump’s cuts to healthcare and Medicaid, Social Security, education, and veterans. She’ll fight to lower the cost of prescription drugs, expand coverage for mental health care and substance abuse, and make healthcare more affordable and accessible for all of us.

Jolanda has been fighting her entire career for women’s rights, bodies, and voices, and will never stop working to restore abortion rights to make sure women — not politicians — make their own healthcare decisions.
