Hey John,
Right now, it's easy to feel overwhelmed. Every time you turn on the news, it feels like our freedoms and dignity are being chipped away by leaders who prioritize profit and control over people.
Here in Texas, the threats are constant: from the erosion of reproductive rights to the fear spread by ICE, and the constant expansion of invasive surveillance that treats our neighborhoods as data mines.
But here’s the inspiring truth: Even when the odds feel stacked against us, Texans are refusing to surrender. We're finding ways to stand up and win.
Last night in Lockhart, we proved it.
The City Council voted 6–1 to reject a contract with Flock Safety, a private surveillance giant that builds its business by helping police investigate women for abortions and aiding ICE in its mission to disappear people. This wasn't a bureaucratic decision; it was a powerful, defiant vote for privacy, freedom, and community.
This massive victory wasn't a miracle. It was organizing. It was the essential, on-the-ground work that Ground Game Texas does every single day.
Your Donation Fuels Our Victories
Our team immediately organized and engaged the community, the same locals who fought for the Lockhart Freedom Act last year:
-
We sent texts, emails, and made calls.
-
We provided scripts and talking points to make it easy for people to contact the entire council.
-
We connected national resources to the local fight.
When the moment came, people showed up, powerful, informed, and brave. They spoke with conviction and they won.
That is what organizing looks like. When we invest in people and equip them to lead, they don't just resist. They win.
But to keep this momentum going, we need your help today.
Will you donate $25, $50, or whatever you can afford right now to power our next win and protect fundamental freedoms across Texas?
Juntos,
Ground Game Texas
