2026 Texas's 7th Congressional District
Texas's 7th Congressional District covers the western Houston suburbs including parts of Harris and Fort Bend counties. Once a reliably Republican stronghold, the district has become one of the most competitive in Texas following demographic shifts.
Lizzie Fletcher has served Texas's 7th District since 2019, making her one of the first Democrats to hold this seat in decades. A commercial litigation attorney, she focuses on healthcare, energy policy, and bipartisan infrastructure investment in the Houston energy corridor.
Wesley Hunt is an Army veteran and businessman considering a run against Rep. Fletcher. Hunt previously ran in TX-07 in 2020 and now serves in the U.S. House in TX-38 but is weighing a district switch.
