My name is Donna Imam. I'm a computer engineer and Democrat running for US Congress in Austin's new Congressional District.

I started my career as the first female design engineer hired in the 100 year history of Duncan Metering. Since then I've led product lines from computers used by millions, to microprocessors found in everything from washing machines to commercial jets. Later, I founded my tech consulting firm.

In 2020, I ran for Congress in Austin to bring practical solutions for our community and our country. We won the Democratic nomination with the highest turnout in the history of the district by taking our message directly to the voters.

I served as president of a 4000+ member Austin nonprofit that provides free training and education to boost people's careers and paychecks. We helped thousands, but I realized we need to do more. As a 15+ year resident of our district and active volunteer in our community, I've seen firsthand the challenges that working Texans face — that's why I'm running.

BOLD NEW LEADERSHIP

For the first time in decades, Austin Democrats have the opportunity to send a new representative to Congress to champion Medicare-for-All and debt-free-education. We need leadership with expertise in technology to deliver solutions for future generations.

DIVERSE REPRESENTATION

95% of the population growth in Texas in the last decade was Hispanic, Black and Asian Americans. We need representation that reflects the community that Austin has become. Our campaign is expanding the electorate by building a coalition of all Texans — that's how we win and take back Texas.

YOUR VOICE MATTERS

Primary elections have low voter participation so your vote will have a tremendous impact. This race will be decided in the Democratic primary so it's important to make your voice heard now. If you're in Austin, Vote Donna Imam and together we can build a brighter future for all of us in the new TX-37.

TOP 3 AREAS OF MY PLATFORM:

Housing — Establish a uniform, federally funded response to homelessness nationwide.
Healthcare — A single-payer solution that fortifies and accelerates Medicare for All (M4A), drastically lowering the cost of healthcare and prescription drugs.
Education — Ensure everyone in the United States can go to college, trade schools, or certification programs without being in debt forever.
