John,
John,
In 2019, the Texas Legislature banned mobile voting locations. Through this one move, Republicans attacked two huge voting populations: students and seniors.
I've visited a senior home in Austin with hundreds of voters, where folks relied on a mobile voting location to vote in numerous recent elections. Now many folks will venture out to voting locations further away, presenting logistical challenges and safety concerns. Whereas rural seniors consistently vote by mail, urban seniors often prefer to vote in person. The ban on mobile voting locations seems precision-guided to target likely Democratic senior voters.
The right to vote is our most basic right. I need your help to stand with seniors and fight GOP attacks on our right to vote! [[link removed]]

And in terms of the youth vote, numerous high schools and community colleges across the Texas 10th have enough voters to utilize a mobile voting location, but not enough to justify "permanent" voting locations. By taking away the mobile voting option, Republicans will suppress thousands of student votes statewide, unless we can win a court injunction.
I am in touch with national voting rights experts to explore emergency legal action. The 26th Amendment of the United States Constitution provides, "The right of citizens of the United States, who are eighteen years of age or older, to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of age." The ban on mobile voting locations singles out students and seniors, taking away a highly effective way to vote. I hope we can build a legal team and plaintiffs who will stop this law before it inflicts any damage on voter participation.
Join our movement for voting rights right here in Texas 10. I need your help to fight back. [[link removed]]
