Lisa Huang (Chinese: 黃文玲; born 11 August 1969) is a Taiwanese lawyer and politician. She has served on the Legislative Yuan between 2012 and 2014.
Lisa Huang is the daughter of politician George Huang. Her brother David is a political scientist. She graduated from Soochow University and later earned a master's degree from National Chiao Tung University. Prior to her career in politics, Huang worked as a lawyer based in Changhua.
Huang first ran for the legislature as an independent candidate in Changhua County during the 2004 elections, but did not win. In 2011, she was named to the Legislative Yuan as a member of the Taiwan Solidarity Union via party list proportional representation. The TSU had previously announced that representatives elected via the party list would serve only two-year terms, and as a result, Huang was replaced by Lai Chen-chang in 2014. She became the TSU's Judiciary Reform Committee director and was in discussion to represent the party as candidate for Changhua County Magistrate later that year. She registered as an independent instead, was expelled from the Taiwan Solidarity Union, and lost the office to Wei Ming-ku.
While a member of the Legislative Yuan, Huang served as Taiwan Solidarity Union caucus whip. In April 2012, she established the Taiwan–US Legislators Amity Association, a legislative caucus in opposition to the ROC–US Inter-Parliamentary Amity Association. In July, Huang visited Japan to discuss the Senkaku Islands dispute. She supported efforts to subject Premier Sean Chen to a vote of no confidence in September, stating that the result was "a betrayal of the will of the Taiwanese people." After the vote's failure, Huang unsuccessfully petitioned for a recall election against President Ma Ying-jeou. In December, Huang suggested that the TSU invite the Dalai Lama to visit Taiwan, after a planned trip was called off. In 2013, Huang proposed that the Act on Property Declaration by Public Servants be amended, increasing the number of government officials that would need to publicly release the value of their property holdings.
