Mayra Flores, a staunch and conservative Republican, had a short stay in Congress, in the House of Representatives, and she is committed to returning to Washington D.C. and Capitol Hill.  

Ms. Flores, 37, seeks to regain the seat she held representing the Texas 34th congressional district, which is located in the southern part of Texas and encompasses a stretch of the Gulf Coast and points inland.
