Win TX-35 with John Lira

Republicans think they can steal TX-35 with gerrymandering — but they drew Marine combat veteran John Lira into the district instead. With your help, we can and will win TX-35. Chip in today to Texans for John Lira.



I’m John Lira. I grew up on San Antonio’s southeast side, joined the Marines straight out of high school, and served in Iraq. I came home to continue my education and keep serving — as an intelligence analyst, a policy expert, and as the senior presidential advisor for AmeriCorps.


Whether helping veterans start their own businesses at the SBA or expanding opportunities for a new generation to serve their communities, my career has been about honoring those who serve and building pathways for others to step up. Marines run toward danger, and that’s the spirit with which I’m entering this race — to make sure your voice is not drowned out in Washington, DC.



Texas’s new 35th Congressional District is one of the most competitive races in the country. Winning it won’t be easy — but with your help, it’s within our reach. Republicans gerrymandered this district hoping to tilt it their way — but this is a seat we can and will win.


TX-35 is 65% minority, and Republicans think it’s theirs because Trump carried it by 10%. Too many Democrats see these voters as people they can no longer reach. I see them as my neighbors — families whose values, struggles, and strength I know firsthand. I’ve lived it, and I’m ready to represent them.


With your help, we’ll build the campaign that organizes every corner of TX-35, takes on entrenched Republican money, and delivers a victory for working Texans.

Chip in now and let’s win TX-35 together.


Thank you, my friend! John
