State Rep. Rhetta Andrews Bowers changes course again. She opts against a congressional campaign to replace Colin Allred and will run for reelection instead.
The Rowlett Democrat announces she will run for reelection instead of in the crowded field to replace Colin Allred in Congress.
“After much prayer, clarity, and conversations with trusted confidants and colleagues, I will be filing for re-election to serve House District 113 as State Representative, running because we’ve still got important work left to do,” Bowers said. “It’s an honor to serve my HD 113 neighbors and my commitment to be their voice in Austin is vital.”Candidates were lining up to replace Bowers in the Texas House in what would have been an open seat.
“This is why I have a renewed purpose and focus to deliver for the people of HD 113 and Texans in the State House,” she said.Maria Cornell adjusts the lettering in Rhetta Andrews Bowers booth during the opening day of the 2022 Texas Democratic Convention at the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center in Dallas, July 14, 2022.
