Rockwall, TX – Representative Katrina Pierson, a dynamic conservative leader, has been selected as the Grand Marshal for the 11th Annual Bikes for Tykes Teddy Bear Ride on September 20. Pierson, who has inspired grassroots activists across the nation for over fifteen years, became a national voice for Texans with her impassioned speech at the Dallas Tea Party rally in 2009.
Background and Experience
Pierson’s grassroots work building the Tea Party Movement in Texas and nationwide earned her formal recognition as one of the “Founding Mothers” of the movement. She has made frequent appearances on national and international news outlets, including Fox News, CNN, MSNBC, and Newsmax. In 2016, President Donald Trump tapped Pierson to serve as National Spokesperson for his presidential campaign, and she later served as a Senior Advisor on his 2020 campaign.
In 2024, Pierson won her Republican primary runoff and went on to win the general election for the Texas House District 33 seat, which covers Rockwall County and part of southern Collin County. As State Representative for House District 33, Pierson now brings her conservative principles and advocacy experience directly into the Texas Legislature, serving on committees including Congressional Redistricting and Homeland Security, Public Safety & Veterans’ Affairs.
Commitment to Public Service
Pierson’s commitment to public service has spanned appointments to the Texas Lieutenant Governor’s Advisory Board, as well as healthcare and transportation boards at the local level. Her work to expand civic engagement and bring more Texans into the political process was formally recognized by proclamation during the 83rd Texas Legislature. In 2021, she became a visiting fellow at the Heritage Foundation and served on the board of a pro-life nonprofit organization.
Pierson is a graduate of Forney High School and lives in Rockwall, TX. She is a longtime supporter of AGMC & Bikes for Tykes, and Rockwall County Bikes for Tykes and Americas Guardians Law Enforcement/Public Safety Motorcycle Club TX28A are pleased to announce her as the Grand Marshal for the 2026 Bikes for Tykes Teddy Bear Ride.
