[1]Talarico for Texas
John —
My spirit is full.
One week ago, we launched this campaign — and the response has been
overwhelming.
I’m amazed by what this team has accomplished in such a short amount of
time.
Last Tuesday, 1,800 people showed up in Round Rock with less than 12 hours
notice.
At that launch rally, I announced that we had raised $1 million in 12
hours. 97% of our donations are $100 or less. $0 from corporate PACs.
Since Tuesday, thousands of Texans have shown up to rallies in San
Antonio, in Fort Bend, and in Houston.

I’ve visited with local officials, worshiped with a Houston church, and
joined the picket line with striking hotel workers demanding better wages
and better working conditions. This is truly a campaign of, by, and for
the people.
We are building a true grassroots movement. We are going everywhere and
talking to everyone to take back Texas from billionaire mega-donors and
their puppet politicians.
It’s an incredible start, but we know it will only get tougher from here.
The attacks have started. Right-wing super PACs have pledged to spend tens
of millions of dollars to buy this seat.
But I’m a Texan and a former middle school teacher. I don’t scare easily —
especially knowing you have my back.
Thank you again. I couldn’t be prouder to be in this fight with you.

James is running for the U.S. Senate to take back power for working
people. We need new leadership in Washington that will take on the corrupt
status quo. James will never hesitate to speak truth to power.
