Hi,
The right to vote is the foundation of our democracy, and we must do everything we can to protect and expand that right, instead of bringing our democratic process to a halt.
We have had conversations with election administrators, local county officials, state legislators, and Texas Republicans because protecting our democracy is incredibly important. Conversations with Texas Republicans fell apart last night because Republicans have no plan.
Republicans would rather stall and hope things just go back to normal -- which is not a plan.
The lawsuit we just filed will protect access to vote by mail for any person who does not want to risk their health or their family's health during the coronavirus pandemic. No Texan should have to worry about risking their health in order to exercise their right to vote.
We must do everything we can to guarantee access to the ballot box for individuals who are practicing social distancing and self-quarantining. Current law says you can vote-by-mail if you are disabled and we believe COVID-19 puts the health of all of us at risk.
We must act before it's too late.
Adelante,
Gilberto Hinojosa
Chair, Texas Democratic Party
