Shelley Luther was briefly jailed earlier this year after reopening her salon despite government mandates that non-essential businesses stay closed.

"For the Senate seat to open up where I live, in Pilot Point, you better bet I'm putting my hat in the ring," Luther told the crowd, according to the local paper."I will fight to keep our Texas values."

Luther made headlines earlier this year when she refused to shut down her salon in North Texas during the pandemic. A Dallas judge sentenced her to seven days in jail and $7,000 in fines for contempt of court for violating a temporary restraining order.
