Dear John,

I’ve got some good news. More than 1,500 Texans who receive these emails
from me have signed up for trainings to become Volunteer Deputy Registrars
(VDRs). In Texas, one must be trained and certified as a VDR in order to
register new voters in their home counties.

I can’t think of more important work for us to be doing, especially when
you consider that Texas is the most voter suppressed state in the country
and that our democracy is being challenged unlike any other time in our
lives.

These 1,500 who’ve signed up so far are capable of making a big difference
in Texas. If they were to each only register ten voters over the course of
the year, that would be 15,000 new voters on the rolls. But, since we’re
more ambitious than that, let’s look at the change they could make if they
were each completing one registration per week: by the end of the year
there’d be more than 78,000 new voters participating in our elections.

Now imagine that if instead of 1,500 VDRs, we had 5,000 — maybe ultimately
10,000 VDRs — doing this work in 2021. That’s when we really begin to have
the numbers to turn the tide in Texas.

In order to do this, we need your support so we can recruit and train more
VDRs. [ [link removed] ]Can you make a donation of $3 today to help us grow

In 2018, we had more than 20,000 volunteers knocking on doors for my
Senate campaign and we helped produce the biggest turnout since 1970. Last
year, we had nearly that same number making calls and texting voters and,
even in the midst of a pandemic, we helped set another turnout record for
Texas.

Think about what we could do if we matched this extraordinary ability to
turn out voters with hundreds of thousands of new people on the rolls. It
could help make the difference in State Representative, Congressional and
even statewide elections.

trained to register new voters in Texas.

I’m looking forward to doing this work with so many of my fellow Texans
(I’m signed up for VDR training too), and helping to get Texas moving in
the right direction.

Beto
