The challenges we face today are the greatest in living memory. Historic
attacks on the right to vote, on a woman's right to choose, and on our
children's right to be free of gun violence will either destroy this great
state or will be overcome by the resolve and power of the people of Texas.
Greg Abbott has prioritized extreme fringe policies instead of expanding
health care, fixing the grid, or improving public education. He signed the
nation’s most extreme abortion bill into law with no exception for rape or
incest. And he refuses to lift a finger to reduce gun violence after six
major mass shootings have occurred on his watch.
Despite all of that -- or maybe because of all of that -- Texans are
standing up to be counted in the fight for a far better Texas. It's
inspiring how the people of this great state are choosing to meet the
moment. Already, 90,000 volunteers have signed up for voter contact shifts
to reach millions of voters wherever they are across Texas. And we have
taken this campaign to literally every part of the state -- showing up for
everyone and writing no one off.
But we face a real challenge in overcoming the millions of dollars that
Greg Abbott was able to raise from special interests before we ever
entered the race. He'll use that to lie to voters about my record and try
to keep them from turning out. And there's a chance he'll succeed if we
don't have the resources to fight back.

organizers, open new field offices, run ads, and ultimately reach all of
the voters who will decide this election. Will you split a contribution
between the PCCC and our campaign to defeat Greg Abbott?
PCCC members have already made over 2,000 donations to my campaign, and
I'm very grateful for all the support the PCCC has given me. Now, we have
less than two months to win this election, and we need everyone to give
everything they've got. I will continue to relentlessly travel this state,
meet with as many voters as physically possible -- but I also need the
resources to overcome Abbott’s money advantage if we're going to win.
Now is the time to focus everything we have on overcoming and winning.
It's never been more important or urgent.
Let's do this.
