John,
One of the most exciting Congressional races in the country is right here in Texas. At a time when the GOP has a razor-thin margin in the U.S. House, Democrats can flip the Texas 15th Congressional District this fall.
Ground Game Texas has been organizing ballot measure campaigns in Hidalgo County, the heart of the Texas 15th, as a way to increase voter turnout in November. Ground Game’s ballot initiative is focused on campaign finance reform — to get big money out of local politics.
Young people in particular understand the need for campaign finance reform. They see the corruption of local and national politics. They are offended that our democracy is sold to the highest bidder.
With gratitude,
Julie Oliver
Executive Director
