A member of the Democratic Party, he is currently serving as the U.S. Representative for {{ushr|TX|32}}. The district covers the northeastern corner of Dallas, as well as many of its northeastern suburbs such as Garland, Richardson, the Park Cities and Rowlett. Allred is an attorney and former American football linebacker who played for the Tennessee Titans of the National Football League (NFL). Allred left football to pursue a degree in law, receiving his J.D. from the University of California, Berkeley, followed by positions in both the Obama administration[1] and the U.S. Attorney's office.[2] Football careerAllred attended Hillcrest High School in Dallas, and Baylor University. He played college football for the Baylor Bears as a linebacker, graduating in December 2005.[3] Allred was signed by the Tennessee Titans as an undrafted free agent following the 2006 NFL Draft on May 4, 2006. He was waived on August 29 but was re-signed on January 26, 2007. Next, Allred was waived on September 1 during final cuts, and was subsequently signed to the practice squad on September 2. He was promoted to the active roster on December 15 and was re-signed on February 17, 2010.{{citation needed|date=September 2018}} Law careerFollowing his football career, Allred enrolled in law school. After graduating from the UC Berkeley School of Law, Allred worked as a special assistant in the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Office of General Counsel alongside then-Secretary Julian Castro in the administration of President Barack Obama.[4] Subsequently, Allred worked as an attorney at the Perkins Coie law firm, where he was a voting rights litigator and counsel to clients including national and state political candidates and advocacy organizations.[4][5] Politico described him as a "civil rights attorney."[6]U.S. House of RepresentativesOn April 21, 2017, Allred announced his campaign to challenge incumbent Republican Pete Sessions in 2018.[7] In a crowded Democratic primary which included two other Obama-administration alums, Allred finished first, by 20 points, but did not get 50 percent of the vote.[8] In the May 22 runoff election, Allred defeated Lewisville businesswoman Lillian Salerno, receiving 69.5% of the vote.[9] Allred faced long-time incumbent Sessions for the 32nd District seat. As of the November 2016 election, this was considered a swing district because Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton received marginally more votes than Donald Trump even as Sessions was reelected with no major-party opposition.[10] Allred has described himself as a moderate Democrat.[6] On November 6, 2018, Allred was elected to the United States House of Representatives for the 32nd district of Texas.[11] Allred's victory was considered an upset because Sessions has been in Congress since 1997 and has represented the 32nd District since 2003.[12] He became the second person to represent this district since it was created in 2003, and the first Democrat. Sessions had represented the neighboring 5th District, and transferred to the 32nd after it was seemingly made less Republican in redistricting. In February 2019, Allred endorsed fellow Texan and former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Julian Castro for the Democratic nomination in the 2020 Democratic presidential primaries.[13] TenureAllred was elected in November 2018 as co-president of the 116th Congressional Freshman Class, alongside fellow Obama administration alumna Haley Stevens of Michigan.[14] Committee assignments
