"We recommend Danielle Keys Bess, 38, for her ability to communicate policy ideas in a style that’s both constructive and assertive. Bess has worked in campaign logistics for several different Democrats in Texas and handled questions on a range of statewide and district-specific issues with aplomb."
​
"We believe Bess will best be able to fight for this district’s constituents in the Legislature, negotiating when possible and punching when necessary."
​
- Houston Chronicle Editorial Board, February 10, 2022
Danielle’s actions are strategic and forceful.
I believe she is the right candidate to send to Austin because Danielle will stand up, work hard, and deliver for the constituents of District 147. Now it’s time for you to stand up and VOTE for Danielle Keys Bess and watch her work for us!”

"After carefully considering the candidates in this race, Danielle Keys Bess proved to be a candidate with intention, integrity, and purpose. She is filled with passion, intellect, and likability along with 20 years of grassroots experience to make a difference at the state level, and locally in District 147.
