Hi,
Here is the list of people making you choose between your right to vote and your health during the middle of this pandemic:
Nathan L. Hecht (Up for re-election in 2020)
Paul W. Green (Up for reelection in 2022)
Eva Guzman (Up for reelection in in 2022)
Debra Lehrmann (Up for reelection in 2022)
Jeffrey S. Boyd (Up for reelection in 2020)
John Phillip Devine (Up for reelection in 2024)
Jimmy Blacklock (Up for reelection in 2024)
Brett Busby (Up for reelection in 2020)
Jane Bland (Up for reelection in 2020)
Leave it to the all-Republican Texas Supreme Court to put out 45 pages of opinion and give no guidance to voters about who can vote by mail during a pandemic --
even after one of the Texas Supreme Court justices under the age of 65 contracted coronavirus last week.
This is reflective of Texas Republican leadership that long ago failed to serve Texans' needs and interests.
Karl Rove just announced that he's going to gather billionaire and special interest money to defend the all-Republican Texas Supreme Court in this election. He knows what we know -- this election is going to come down to the wire.
Though yesterday's ruling wasn't what we were hoping for, we've never been the Party that gives up.
We're going to keep fighting until every eligible Texan can vote safely. We will take this all the way to the [United States] Supreme Court, if necessary.
Protecting the right to vote is our responsibility. To turn Texas blue in 2020, Texas Democrats are committed to making sure Texas voters have access to the ballot box, even during a public health crisis. That's why despite all this, we still need you in this movement with us.
If Ken Paxton thinks that this ruling will slow us down, he's got another thing coming. We need your continued support of our Voting Rights Litigation Fund to keep going. Can you make a $7 contribution right now?
Adelante,
Gilberto Hinojosa
Chair, Texas Democratic Party
