Texas House District 112

  • Democrat

  • Averie Bishop
  • As a 28-year-old woman who dreams of starting a family, the current state of reproductive healthcare in Texas makes me feel unsafe. Texas’ total abortion ban forces women to seek dangerous or illegal options. I’ve heard stories like Kate Cox’s, a woman who was carrying a pregnancy with a fatal diagnosis but had to leave Texas to get the care she needed. It’s terrifying to think that, even if my life was at risk, Texas laws would prevent me from receiving care. This isn’t just about abortion—it’s about feeling safe to plan my future.
    Incumbent’s Record:
    Voted for Senate Bill 8 (2021), the six-week abortion ban, effectively outlawing abortion even before most women know they’re pregnant.
    Supported House Bill 1280 (2021), the “trigger law” that went into effect after Roe v. Wade was overturned, criminalizing almost all abortions.
    Backed efforts to defund Planned Parenthood, stripping crucial healthcare services for millions of women across Texas.
    Solutions:
    Restore Reproductive Rights: I will fight to bring back protections for safe, legal abortion in Texas and ensure women have access to comprehensive reproductive healthcare.
    Healthcare Freedom: Push for legislation that protects the doctor-patient relationship, ensuring medical decisions are made between patients and healthcare professionals, not politicians.
    Family Planning Support: Expand access to affordable contraception and fertility treatments so that women can plan their families on their terms.

    I’m fed up with the extremist positions taken by my opponent and Republicans in Austin, positions that show they don’t care about women’s reproductive freedom.
    Over the last two years, voters across the country have consistently rejected extreme candidates that refuse to stand up for a woman’s right to choose. It’s time to do that to my opponent, so I can go to Austin and work to pass legislation that gives women back their reproductive freedom.

  • Republican

  • Mark Dorazio
  • I am unwavering and noncompromising in my belief that life begins at conception and ends at natural death. I fully support Texas’ recent Heartbeat Bill and will continue to support legislation that seeks to end abortion altogether. The people instituted governments to protect the most vulnerable amongst them and there is no one more vulnerable than a preborn baby who cannot advocate for itself or defend its life. I will be their advocate and I will defend their lives.

  • Republican

And as the mother of a special needs daughter, I will also advocate for an exception from these hateful laws for disabled girls.
    To the women of McLennan County, and the men who love them, I respectfully request that you vote for Erin Shank for Texas House of Representatives, HD 56.

    “Over the last two decades, mifepristone has been used safely and effectively by millions of Americans. Today’s ruling is an outrageous act of judicial overreach that ignores years of scientific research in favor of bad-faith arguments by right-wing extremists who seek to control the most personal aspect of American lives. At a time when maternal deaths are surging, this ruling has the potential to further reduce access to safe abortion and force Americans to carry dangerous and non-viable pregnancies against medical advice.

    I am proud to have voted against the state abortion ban and the law that would have put bounties on abortion doctors. I voted against funding fake women’s clinics intended to prevent women from abortion every time they came up for a vote.

    In 2023, I authored HB 3744 to protect pharmacists from the state when prescribing abortion medication. I was proud to co-author and pass HB 916 which allows all Texas women with birth control prescriptions to finally get a 12-month supply of birth control instead of 3-month supplies. Last session, I also co-authored SB 370 which ended the state sales tax on feminine hygiene products.

    I staunchly defend a woman’s right to make her own reproductive health decisions, including access to safe and legal abortion. I oppose any attempts to restrict or undermine reproductive rights and will work to ensure access to comprehensive reproductive healthcare for all women, regardless of their economic status or geographic location.

This injustice must become the fuel for greater engagement to ensure that healthcare choices are made only by consulting a doctor and loved ones, not politicians or unelected judges. Denying a right to choose—including in cases of rape, incest, or dangerous health risks, is unconscionable. Women in Texas face some of the most extreme barriers to accessing reproductive healthcare in the country.

I also sponsored the Equal Access to Abortion Coverage in Health Insurance (EACH Woman) Act, which protects access to reproductive care for public health insurance beneficiaries, federal employees, and in federal health services. I have consistently rejected Republicans’ anti-choice amendments and riders on appropriation bills, have strongly opposed Republican efforts to defund Planned Parenthood in their healthcare repeal bills, and will continue to support efforts to improve access to reproductive services. I will continue working hard to protect a woman’s right to make her own healthcare decisions.”

  • “Ever since the Supreme Court ruled that states can ban abortion, Texas has become a dangerous place for women. 50% of Texas counties do not have a women’s health provider. Infant mortality increased by 11% since the ban went into effect. This is not “pro-life,” this is “pro-forced birth.” Women deserve the right to bodily autonomy, and their healthcare decisions should be made privately with a physician.

    Between April and December 2021, Texas had an increase in 9,800 births. Only time will tell how the increase in births will affect our foster care system, education system, crime rate, and welfare budget.”

  • Abortion As a country, we must place more value on LIFE. I believe that each life is created by God for a special, unique purpose, and that every life has inherent value. Being pro-life goes beyond politics. It is a foundational, moral position on the side of humanity.

    We must stop late-term abortions in this country. I believe our country is on very shaky moral ground by allowing the abortion of a human being with ten fingers, ten toes, and heartbeat. This is not an attack on women, it is a question of our humanity. Not even far-left European countries like France allow abortions past 12 weeks, and yet we do?

Ruth also personally knows the impact abortion and miscarriages have on women as well as the challenges working women have during and after pregnancies and in child support enforcement. That’s why Ruth will represent women’s rights to have full control of the decisions affecting their own body including:
    Codify Roe v. Wade with limits, Abortion legal up to viability to survive outside the womb
    Exceptions due to rape / incest and defined medical necessity
    Protect women’s rights to utilize birth control and in vitro fertilization (IVF)
    Address the drivers of abortion: poverty, abuse, and exploitation:
    Ensure affordable access to birth control, resources for domestic abuse and mental health.
    Affordable medical care during and post pregnancy.
    Ensure timely processing of rape kits and prosecution of rape and human trafficking.
    Provide evaluation and resources for domestic violence, incest and human trafficking.

  • From a press release in september 2021: “Given that most women may not realize they are pregnant until after six weeks have lapsed, if this law is allowed to stand, a woman who is raped will be victimized twice: initially by the criminal who is a rapist, and thereafter by the state of Texas denying her constitutional right to choose under the most unconscionable of circumstances. Upholding a woman’s right to choose is not and should not be contingent upon ‘eliminating rapists’ in the state of Texas. I am deeply concerned about the future of women’s reproductive rights and will continue to fight for the passage of the Women’s Health Protection Act at the federal level.”

  • “To be pro-choice is not to tell someone whether to have an abortion or not. To be pro-choice is just that — it provides a choice. When draconian abortion bans are enacted, governments overreach and make that choice for women. These bans that remove choice lead to worse maternity care, to victims of trauma being left in agony, and to more women dying of treatable conditions. This is why I support codifying Roe v. Wade into law, to take the decision out of politicians hands and give it back to the people.”

  • “Guaranteeing abortion rights supports the human rights of women to make decisions about their own bodies, health, and futures. It promotes bodily autonomy and empowers women to make informed choices about their reproductive health, contributing to their overall well-being and agency. Codifying abortion rights ensures that individuals have access to safe and legal abortions. When these rights are protected by law, it means that people can seek medical help without fear of legal repercussions. Access to safe abortions can prevent complications, reduce maternal mortality rates, and protect the health and lives of women.
    Access to safe and legal abortions allows women to plan their families, pursue education, and participate fully in the workforce. When women have control over their reproductive health, it positively impacts their economic and social opportunities, contributing to overall societal progress. Legalizing and codifying abortion rights can help reduce criminality associated with illegal abortions. When abortions are illegal or heavily restricted, individuals might resort to unsafe, clandestine procedures that put their lives at risk and often involve criminal activities. By legalizing and regulating abortions, it can significantly reduce unsafe procedures and related criminal actions.
    The codification of Roe v. Wade at the federal level would enshrine the right to access safe and legal abortions as a fundamental right protected by law. Electing candidates who support this ensures that reproductive rights are preserved and not subject to changes or restrictions that could limit access to abortion services. Codifying Roe v. Wade at the federal level protects against potential rollbacks or challenges to abortion rights that may arise at the state level. This continuity ensures that access to abortion services remains consistent across the nation, preventing a patchwork of laws that could limit or eliminate these essential healthcare services in certain areas.”
