Hi John,
Today is National Voter Registration Day. All day long, Democrats across the state of Texas have been working extremely hard to combat the Republicans' voter suppression efforts by out-organizing them.
The sacred right to vote is central to our democracy. It defines who we are as a nation. The right to vote provides Americans with a voice, and holding elections is one of the most basic functions of our government.
Before we can exercise our right to vote, we must first make sure everyone is registered. That is why today is so important. Today is a national holiday that reminds us that our participation in the process is essential to the success of our democracy and our future. Today reminds us that apathy is the enemy of progress.
I am asking you to close out this National Voter Registration Day by helping us raise funds to register thousand of new voters across Texas found in the 2020 census. It is going to be an all-hands-on-deck situation. If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately: Here in Texas, we don't have online voter registration. That means we have to hire organizers and purchase the tools they need to succeed in the field. It's just one more hurdle that the Texas Republicans have created to make Democrats spend campaign dollars on overhead instead of communicating our message to voters.
So any money you can send our way today will help deploy more organizers to go door-to-door and register folks to VOTE in 2022! Registered,

Growing up in Fort Worth’s historic Como neighborhood, Marc Veasey didn’t dream about being an elected official. He just hoped that he would one day be able to make a difference in the lives of his friends and neighbors. That simple goal has taken him all the way to the halls of Congress, where he is proud to represent not only the friends and neighbors he grew up with but hundreds of thousands of diverse voices across North Texas. |
