John,

In 2020, Jessica Cisneros narrowly lost to the worst Democrat in Congress, Henry Cuellar, by just 2,690 votes.

Jessica is a human rights lawyer and the daughter of Mexican immigrants. She’s seen her family and community struggle with a lack of access to affordable healthcare, few job opportunities, and a broken immigration system that tears families apart.

She’s the perfect candidate to lead this critical border district with the experience and leadership of a true progressive Democrat who has lived their struggles and will be their voice in Washington.

Henry Cuellar, instead, is an establishment Democrat who just this week defended U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents riding horses, using whips on migrants crossing the border saying “Border Patrol has had those horse brigades for a while ... What are they supposed to do, just stand there and let everybody come in?”

We cannot allow a Democrat to remain in Congress who defends whipping people legally seeking asylum. 2020 proved they if we get started early, Jessica can beat him.

Will you rush a split contribution between Jessica’s campaign and DFA today to help elect this bold, progressive Latina to Congress?

The reality is Henry Cuellar is a fake Democrat and corporate shill standing in the way of progress as we work to turn Texas blue.

Henry Cuellar voted with Trump 70% of the time and even voted with Republicans against DACA and supported legislation to punish ‘sanctuary cities’ for not allowing ICE to terrorize their communities.

Turning Texas blue doesn't just mean replacing terrible Republicans with Democrats throughout the state. It also means replacing terrible Democrats with progressive women and men willing to stand up for their communities.

Jessica advocates for families like her own by protecting the rights of immigrants and working people and fighting to build an America for all of us – no matter who we are or where we come from.

Jessica's is going to need massive grassroots support to go up against an establishment Democrat like Cuellar in the primary. Split a donation between DFA and Jessica now to fuel her campaign for progressive change in Texas >>

Together, we can kick out a fake Democrat like Cueller and replace him with a bold, progressive who’s ready to fight for her community in Washington.

Let’s do it,

– Chris
