You might be asking why Trump ordered the Texas legislature to force through a gerrymandered map. Maybe you’re also wondering why Texas Republicans are bending over backwards to do his bidding.
It’s pretty straightforward: Trump knows that his popularity is at an all-time low with the American people. He’s losing his base over broken promises that range from lowering costs to refusing to release the Epstein files. Voters are waking up to the fact that his “Big Beautiful Bill” is only beautiful for billionaires and giant corporations, not for everyday working people.
But instead of listening to voters or asking themselves what they can do to actually earn their votes, they’re turning to gerrymandering.
It’s absolutely critical that we stand up to Trump’s latest act as a wannabe king. What happens in Texas will have ripple effects across the country. I’m going to keep sounding the alarm about what’s happening in Texas and make it clear that Trump is blatantly trying to silence voters, with Republicans all too willing to help.
If you’re in a position to give, please split a donation between my campaign and Texas Democrats to raise the alarm and defend against this authoritarian attempt to hold onto power.
Thanks for being a part of this,
Elizabeth
