Overview

Lizzie Fletcher represents Texas's 7th Congressional District, which covers parts of the Houston metropolitan area. She was first elected in 2018, flipping a seat that had been held by Republicans for decades. Her voting record shows consistent support for Democratic legislative priorities across multiple policy areas. Fletcher's voting patterns show particular engagement with healthcare legislation, where she has cast 32 recorded votes with a 66% rate of voting in favor of measures that came before her. She has also been active on budget-related matters, though with a more mixed voting pattern at 56% in favor. As a representative from a suburban Texas district that was traditionally Republican-leaning, Fletcher occupies an interesting position within the Democratic caucus. Her ideology score suggests she votes more progressively than the average Democrat, though her district's competitive nature likely influences her approach to constituent outreach and communication.
