Friend, I'm running to defeat Ted Cruz and become the first-ever Black Senator from Texas. If you’re already with me, will you split a donation between me and Demings PAC to help power my grassroots campaign? →

All the way back in 1870, Hiram Rhodes Revels, a pastor and State Senator from Mississippi, was elected as the first Black U.S. Senator. Since then, we've come a long way as a country. But representation – like our democracy – is a work in progress, and I believe we can do better.

Black Americans have long faced far too many obstacles like: discrimination, lower pay, higher job instability – not to mention the racist voter suppression laws that Texas Republicans like Ted Cruz have championed, which make it harder for certain folks to vote.

|
The bottom line is this: It's essential that our government reflects the people it represents.

I'm ready to defeat Ted Cruz this November and fight to build a more perfect union for my boys and every kid in Texas. But unlike Ted Cruz, I don't have corporate special interests footing the bill for my campaign.

To win, I need a massive movement of grassroots supporters to step up and join me in this fight. Please, will you split $5 between me and Demings PAC to power my campaign to defeat Ted Cruz, become the first Black Senator from Texas, and be the leader Texans deserve? →
