John, allow me to
introduce myself.

I’m Lee Merritt — a civil rights attorney, community organizer, and
co-founder of the Grassroots Law Project. And I’m running to be the next
Attorney General of Texas.

I’m going to ask for some urgent support real soon. But I want to share a
little bit more about myself, and why I’m running for this seat.

At the age of fourteen, I was first introduced to the juvenile penal
system. My earliest memories of my father are of seeing him behind bars.

His father, who I have never met, was also formerly incarcerated. My two
brothers have been saddled with the label "felon" which locks them out of
jobs, opportunities, and full citizenship.

For the last few years, my law practice has focused on exposing and
dismantling what — in my eyes — is the central human rights crisis of our
time: the racist machine of mass incarceration and police brutality.

I’m honored to say that I will be continuing that mission as a candidate
for Texas Attorney General.

I’m running to be the People’s Attorney General. To give a voice to the
voiceless. To fight back against the systems of policing and incarceration
that tear families like mine apart every day. And to ensure that all
Texans — regardless of background, race, religion, party, or class — have
someone looking out for their interests.

It won’t be an easy race. Ken Paxton — the Republican incumbent who
infamously met with the organizers of the Capitol Riots on January 6th —
has an army of right-wing mega donors and super PACs at his disposal.

But we have you. And despite what the pundits and "experts" will try and
say, we CAN win this race if we work together. So, I’m asking:

It’s going to take all of us to take on Ken Paxton and his backers. But
we’re used to uphill battles. The people of Texas aren’t going to back
down from this fight. Nor are the thousands of supporters from around the
country.

This is our moment. Let’s get after it.

Lee Merritt
