WE’RE HIRING!
Our campaign is looking for passionate, hardworking organizers.
It’s time for progressive campaigns to practice what we preach, so we’re paying a living wage of $4,000 a month.
Help us find amazing staff by RT-ing or @-ing potential candidates! #txlege
@BriscoeCain And yet you support #texasgop congressional gerrymandering of our State’s representative govt?? Tell me more about tyranny and the “purity of the ballot box”… any other anti democratic stances?
Hypocrite. You are unqualified to serve.
Julian #Assange's partner @StellaMoris1 outside the court "The story about the plans to assassinate and kidnap Julian from London will be discussed in court today."
Repro rights are under attack in TX.
Voting rights are under attack in TX.
Now, my marriage is under attack too.
But these bully tactics don't scare me into backing down from the #txlege.
I'll stare injustice straight in the face. Are you with me?

In less than a week, Texas' child welfare agency removed their suicide hotline for LGBTQ youth at Abbott’s request, and successfully banned trans kids from participating in school sports.
Things are not okay in Texas.
Vote NO on Prop A. Even more proof that Prop A, if passed, would have an enormous negative impact on public safety as a whole, as well as other essential City services.
A minority can use the Electoral College to elect a president who loses the popular vote.
A minority can gerrymander control of the House.
A minority can stop the majority from governing the Senate.
Does that sound like a successful democracy to you?
@mtgreenee 1) Do you know what the word fascist means?
2) You can’t get HIV playing basketball
3) You can definitely spread Covid and shut the league down.
4) What about freedom of private businesses to protect their assets? All of a sudden you disagree with yourself?
Because of Texas Republicans’ bill banning education on racism and sexism, Texas teachers are being pushed to add Holocaust denial into their curriculum.
There is no place for antisemitism in the classroom, in Texas, or in our country. Enough is enough.
JUST PASSED: We extended my #COVID renter protection law through Dec 31.
#ATX has the lowest eviction rate of major Texas cities in the pandemic, and we're going to keep it that way. ⬇️
Trump dismantled the USPS by installing a old FedEx exec with conflicting interests as post master general to limit urban mail in voting.
A side effect of late ballots… late packages… on Xmas…

You can see in the map below how Republicans drew Black and Brown communities (in green) with White rural communities (in blue).
In a county that is only 55% White, Republicans gave White voters control over 100% of the State House districts.
@BriscoeCain How did you feel about @GovAbbott using the line item veto to defund the legislature? Did that feel like an appropriate separation of powers?
Tonight, Democrats voted to avert a default, which would have sent our economy into a tailspin.
Republicans instead proved they’re just fine with chaos, even a default – and the harsh consequences to families – if it moves them closer to power.
