This Tuesday, we have two big red-to-blue congressional pickup opportunities in Texas. Candace Valenzuela (TX-24) and Mike Siegel (TX-10) both made it through big primary fields earlier this year, and now are the bold progressives left in 2-way primary runoffs to face vulnerable Republican incumbents.

A brand new poll this week had Candace ahead leading into this Get Out The Vote weekend.

Please support Candace and Mike -- the bold progressives in these races. Chip in $3 to their Get Out The Vote efforts and our work to elect them and other progressives all across the country.

Candace Valenzuela (TX-24) is running to replace retiring Republican Rep. Kenny Marchant in TX-24, one of the most flippable races in the country in 2020. Candace grew up in a military family that struggled financially and was homeless for a time. She went on to become an educator, and then was the first Latina and African-American woman elected to her local school board. She is a PCCC training alum and is endorsed by the PCCC and Elizabeth Warren. Nearly 1,000 PCCC members have already donated thousands to her campaign and she recently participated in a Zoom video call with PCCC members. Donate here.

Mike Siegel (TX-10) is running to unseat Republican incumbent Michael McCaul, who Mike came 4 percentage points away from defeating in 2018 -- with no institutional support. McCaul votes with Trump 96.4% of the time, while Siegel is a former union organizer and public school teacher endorsed by the PCCC, Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, the Sunrise Movement, and local and national unions. As an Austin city attorney, Mike took on Texas Republicans to demand gun reforms. As a civil rights lawyer he also sued employers on behalf of women who experienced workplace discrimination and whistleblowers who suffered retaliation. PCCC members across the nation have donated thousands to Mike’s campaign, and Mike also recently participated in a Zoom video call with PCCC members. Donate here.

Chip in $3 to Candace's and Mike's Get Out The Vote efforts and our work to elect them and other progressives all across the country.

Thanks for being a bold progressive.
