John,
Last weekend, Texas House Democrats flatly rejected Republicans' partisan
maneuvering and attempts to pass one of the worst voter suppression bills
in Texas history. Late into Sunday night, Democrats broke quorum and
walked out of the House Chamber to kill the dangerous voter suppression
bill, SB 7, for the time being.
Democrats fought against SB 7 with everything they had and kept the hope
of free and fair elections alive for another day, but this fight isn't
over yet. This is only one of the many voter suppression bills Texas
Republicans have introduced – and Republicans across the country are
currently coordinating the largest attack on voting rights in decades.
We need to make the most of this victory and fuel ourselves for the fight
ahead. That’s why Powered by People is helping Texans become Volunteer
Deputy Registrars (VDRs) so they can register new voters in their county,
urging President Biden and the Senate to pass the For the People Act to
expand voting rights. It’s why Beto is hitting the road to talk with Texas
across the state about how we can ensure our democracy is accessible to
everyone.
Texas Republicans are solely to blame for SB 7 and the numerous other
voter suppression bills like it. [ [link removed] ]But now, it's on us to make sure they
don't stay in power. Please,

We don’t have to remind our fellow Texans that instead of focusing on
pandemic relief, extreme weather protection, and keeping the power on this
legislative session, Republicans chose to focus their time in power on
making it more difficult to vote.
Time and time again, Republicans have shown they do not have what it takes
to lead. So Powered by People is mobilizing to protect voting rights,
register 500,000 new voters in Texas, and engage more Texans in the
democratic process.
When Democrats stick together, stand up, and fight, we win.
John, this is
an all-out battle for our democracy – we need you on board.
