Justice for Hannah Rapp

Justice for Hannah means action — safer roads, stronger laws, and real accountability for every Texas family.

Hannah Rapp was a 26-year-old Texas A&M employee, Brazos County resident, and rising professional boxer who was killed while riding her bicycle with her fiancé, Will, a Texas A&M civil engineering faculty member. According to law enforcement, a driver reversed into her on FM 159 in Grimes County on July 18, 2026. Her death was preventable. Texas must act.

I support stronger Safe Passing protections, better safeguards for vulnerable road users, and real accountability when reckless conduct takes a life.

Safer roads. Real accountability. A Texas that values every life.

Hannah Rapp’s death was preventable. Her loss is a painful reminder that too many Texans are forced to live with unsafe roads, weak protections, and a system that too often fails to hold dangerous drivers accountable.

That is not acceptable.

I’m running for Texas House District 14 because government should fight for ordinary people and working families, not look the other way when preventable tragedy strikes. Justice for Hannah means action: stronger Safe Passing laws, better protections for vulnerable road users, and safer streets in every community.

What I’ll fight for

• A strong Safe Passing law

  • Clear, enforceable passing-distance rules

  • Stronger protections around large and commercial vehicles

  • Standards built to prevent injuries and save lives

• Real accountability for dangerous driving

  • Stronger consequences when reckless or negligent driving seriously injures or kills someone

  • Fewer loopholes and less excuse-making

  • A legal system that treats these cases with the seriousness they deserve

• Protection for vulnerable road users

  • Stronger safeguards for cyclists, pedestrians, runners, children, seniors, road workers, and people with disabilities

  • A public safety approach that values people outside a vehicle too

• Safer local streets and intersections

  • Better crossings, lighting, signage, and traffic calming where risk is highest

  • Support for communities trying to make roads safer

  • State policy that prioritizes lives over speed

• Prevention, education, and public responsibility

  • Better public awareness about sharing the road

  • Driver education that includes safe passing and road safety

  • Data-driven decisions to reduce deaths and serious injuries

Why this matters

This is about more than one case. It is about whether Texas is willing to accept preventable deaths as normal.

Working families should not have to fear for their children crossing the street, for a spouse biking home, or for a neighbor walking through their own community. Public safety means protecting people wherever they are — in a car, on a bike, or on foot.

Our roads belong to all of us. Our laws should reflect that.

A people-first approach

For too long, politicians have treated road safety as an afterthought. I do not.

I believe every Texan deserves:

• Safety

• Dignity

• Accountability

• A government willing to act before the next tragedy

Justice for Hannah means standing with families, communities, and everyday Texans who are tired of excuses and ready for change.

Join this fight

If you believe Texas can do better, join this campaign.

Together, we can fight for:

• Safer roads

• Stronger laws

• Real accountability

• A state government that puts people first

Justice for Hannah. Safer roads for everyone.
