Former Democratic State Senator and Gubernatorial candidate Wendy Davis announced she is running for congress.
Davis, who gained notoriety during her 2014 run against Governor Greg Abbott, announced her candidacy for the Democratic nomination for District-21 on Monday morning. She will face freshman U.S. Rep. Chip Roy, who represents a large portion of Hays County.
"I'm running for Congress because people's voices are still being silenced," Davis said in a video announcement. "I'm running for our children and grandchildren so they can live and love and fight for change themselves."
