John, Texas just opened the door to 205 real opportunities to change this state for the better—and Powered by People helped make it all possible.
In 2025, we were on the ground across Texas—recruiting candidates, having conversations in places that are too often ignored, and building the kind of grassroots infrastructure that lasts well beyond a single election.
The goal wasn’t flashy. It was foundational: make sure Texans have a real choice on every ballot, in every race, everywhere in the state.
And together, we made it happen. For the first time in modern state history, Democrats are running for every State House, State Senate, and Congressional seat on the ballot. That’s 39 seats in Congress, 16 seats in the State Senate, and 150 seats in the State House.
Those numbers matter because they represent opportunity—205 chances to organize new voters, 205 chances to deepen relationships in communities that have been ignored for decades, and 205 chances to hold extremists accountable while forcing them to defend every inch of ground instead of running uncontested.
This is how change starts in Texas. Not overnight, but on the ground every day, everywhere. Not by writing people off, but by showing up and doing the work.
Now comes the next phase: turning opportunity into power. Supporting these candidates, registering voters, deploying volunteers, and mobilizing Texans across the state. That’s the work Powered by People was built to do. And it only happens because this movement is powered by people like you.
Thank you,
