The Texas House Democrats are denying quorum to stop the Trump takeover of Texas and block his attempt to rig the 2026 midterm elections.

This isn’t just about redistricting or one state’s politics.  It’s about the future of our democracy.  Congressional Republicans can’t win with their unpopular policies and their failure to deliver on key campaign promises.  (Grocery prices are up by three percent since last year, and tariffs are driving costs up even more.)  So, President Trump has demanded that Governor Abbott and Texas Republicans discriminate against Black, Latino, and Asian voters by eliminating the districts of the representatives they have elected to Congress.  We’re not going to let that happen.

This Saturday is a National Day of Action.  Here’s how you can help:

1. Attend the Fight The Trump Takeover Rally in Austin, Texas!

2. Phonebank with Team Lizzie to Fight The Trump Takeover!

This Saturday, Team Lizzie will host a phonebank at our campaign HQ in Houston to call voters and let them know what's happening!  We'll encourage them to join the fight against this anti-democratic Trump takeover.

WHEN
Saturday, August 16, 2025
1 P.M. - 4 P.M.

Team Lizzie and Texas Democrats are taking a stand to protect Texans, Americans, and democracy itself.  We will continue to fight the Trump Texas Takeover, and are grateful to be in the fight with you.

Thanks and we hope to see you there!
