Texas Republicans are banning books in school libraries across our state.

Today we’re staging a “read-in” in the Texas Capitol to protest this censorship.

@GregAbbott_TX: you can borrow my copy of Fahrenheit 451.

The prolific and bestselling author Jason Reynolds of young people's literature uses his own childhood experiences to encourage kids to use their imagination to tell their stories, and engage in the complicated conversations they may evoke https://t.co/3uDxHywlwz

Like my students, my mom was a fighter. And back then, she looked over at the State Capitol and saw Texas Democrats like Ann Richards and Bob Bullock fighting for her. So when I was 5 years old my mom told me we were Democrats because, she said, “Democrats fight for the people.”

[James Talarico @jamestalarico]

I saw the same fight in my mom—a preacher’s daughter from Laredo who left home at 19.

She moved to Austin & met my father—a 21-year-old high school dropout whose drinking problem led to violence.

One night he became abusive again, but that night my mother’s love rose to meet it

“I’ve been given 5 minutes to speak to my party. So I want to talk about hard truths.

The Democratic Party is the only thing standing between this country and fascism.

Yet the most our national party leaders can muster is spineless talking points & soulless fundraising emails.”

I’m fighting for #fReadom! Because you have the right to choose what you want your OWN CHILD(REN) to read, but you don’t have the right to choose what everyone else’s child should or should not read. #txlege

Unlike Texas Democrats, national Democrats are in the majority.

Yet they can’t seem to get their act together and pass this critical voting rights legislation.

We are out of time in Texas. We need Congress to act now.

I'VE ALWAYS KNOWN THAT TRUTH CAN HURT, BUT THIS IS ON ANOTHER LEVEL! Take a look at my brief commentary below.

@itskerrii Love you !!! You are amazing!!

[Julie Johnson for Congress @juliejohnsonTX]

To my new followers — it's nice to meet you! I'm a 2 term Texas Dem. I flipped a seat held by Rs for 40 years. I also broke quorum on a #votersuppression bill. Now, I need your help. Will you RT & amplify me? I've got a target on my back. #TXlege #ForThePeopleAct #VotingRights

[Julie Johnson for Congress @juliejohnsonTX]

My name is Julie Johnson.

I’m one of the Texas Democrats that broke quorum on a really bad voter suppression bill.

Now our Governor has targeted us. He has 613,000 followers. I have 7,000.

Will you help me stay in the fight by asking your friends to follow me?

I read Dream House by @carmenmmachado this week. This might need to be a thread.
