Tina Aviles is the Vice Chair of the Dallas County Republican Party for the 2020 Biennium and a Grassroots Engagement Director with the Libre Initiative. Guided by her Christian faith, Tina is a political activist, advancing conservative values and supporting conservative candidates. Tina leads, trains, and develops fellow citizens to positively impact the political process. Tina was honored in the 83rd Legislative Session of the Texas State Senate with an official resolution authored by Senator Don Huffines detailing her valuable contributions to the State of Texas and recognized by the Dallas County Republican Party in 2016 with a Reagan Award for her extensive volunteer work, among other distinctions. Selected by former Chairwoman Shorey, Tina served as the Hispanic Engagement Director for Dallas GOP. In preparation for the Presidential election, she led field teams for Trump Victory in the Dallas region and tackled screened voter registration, surpassing her personal goal of identifying and personally registering over 1000 conservative Texans to vote in 2020. Tina is a pink enthusiast, and fruity tea aficionado. Tina and Israel, her husband of 29 years, live in Grand Prairie and had quite an adventure raising four children in a joy filled home. Their family legacy continues with the recent birth of their first grandson, Leo, and the ongoing care of some very special little people that call them Glammy and Gruncle.
