John —

When I was first elected, I made a rare decision in Texas politics. I was the only member of the legislature to reject corporate PAC money.

I was confronted with the same decision when I decided to run for the U.S. Senate. This will be the most expensive race I’ve ever run. There are plenty of corporate PACs willing to give big donations for access and influence.

But I’m not changing my decision. I refuse to take their money. The people I serve will never have to wonder who I’m fighting for.

That’s why I’m counting on people like you to fuel our campaign. Please consider making a contribution today. I can’t do this alone.

DONATE

Refusing to accept corporate PAC checks was not easy. When I got to the House, I suddenly had a bunch of new “best friends.” And they all had lots of money. Money that came with expectations.

I refused to be part of it. In our broken political system, it’s harder than ever to know whether your leaders are fighting for you or are just puppets for their mega-donors.

Even when they sent me unsolicited checks, I returned the money. Thousands of dollars. Check out this tweet from my first term back in 2019:

If they send me checks again in this race, I’ll send them back. I won’t be part of their corrupt system. My vote is not for sale.

This campaign is of and for the people. So I need to ask you, John:

Will you please make a donation to our campaign today? Texas is a massive state, and the super PACs that want to buy this seat have war chests loaded with corporate money. Anything you can give will help.

DONATE

We’re building this grassroots movement together. Let’s make it one that we can be proud of.
