Sima Ladjevardian is running to represent Texas’s Second District in Congress. Sima immigrated to the United States from Iran in the 1970s, and has spent her life working to improve her community. In addition to being a family and business lawyer, Sima is a committed political activist. Sima has worked to elect candidates up and down the ballot, including as a senior advisor and finance chair on Beto O’Rourke’s 2018 US Senate campaign. 

Sima sees gun violence prevention as a universal, human issue that supersedes partisan politics. She is committed to advocating for universal background checks, a policy that is widely popular among Texans. Furthermore, Sima is ready to work on implementing extreme risk laws and closing the boyfriend loophole, which allows domestic abusers and stalkers to access firearms. Texas’s Second District can trust Sima Ladjevardian to put the safety of their community first.

We are proud to endorse Sima Ladjevardian for the US House of Representatives in 2020.
