Welcome! I am an Independent Candidate for Texas Legislature District 126. I am "running for walking". This means let's put our differences aside and focus on making the District better, by making it more walkable. I need your help to make it to the November ballot. Because I am not with a political party I need to submit a petition to the Texas Secretary of State. Please, explore the website, and then sign up to sign. Thank you.

Hi, I am Lisa Emerson. This is me, submitting my paperwork to run as an Indpendent. The Texas Republican Leaders have gone too far. They have ignored the Texas Constitution, and they need to be removed. The Democrats are uninspiring. WE THE PEOPLE need real choices. I am running to give District 126 a choice.
If you live in District 126 you can use your voice and change the conversation.
People need to run for office for citizens to have choices. The picture above is me submitting the initial paperwork in Austin on December 4, 2025. I am doing this so that YOU have a choice. Please join me.
Texas District 126 radiates outward from the intersection of Cypresswood and Champion Forest drive in Northwestern Harris County, TX. The region is predominantly residential with strong schools, neighborhoods, and churches.
The area has transformed from rural to residential and the time is now to bring stakeholders together and connect residents to their communities by building walkable infrastructure.
20 years ago, the area could be call forested, now, usually a lone tree can be spotted on the horizon, but green spaces are few and far between. Because of this there needs to be increased emphasis on preserving green space and enabling access to the green space that is available.
To those passing through, District 126 may seem like a bland area, with housing and strip malls on repeat. But to those of us that live here we know that it is a dynamic and thriving community. We know it is full of committed, kind, thoughtful people that are ready to build the America of their Dreams.
To those far away, like the National Republican Party, this district is a ‘gimme’. It is the very center of their power. I think we can challenge that.
If you are looking for a way to use your electoral power to slow down republican abuse of power, you are in the right place.
If you are looking for a way to use your electoral power, but you don’t want to support a democrat, because you know that is a waste, you are in the right place.
If you know that our government works for us, then please let me represent you.
You just have to sign the petition! So please, join the email list!
