John,

Imagine if the Republicans took control of Congress this January
and appointed Nancy Pelosi, AOC and Adam Schiff to powerful
leadership positions. It sounds incredible, but that is exactly
what is happening in Texas! Despite a 20 year Republican
legislative majority in Texas, leadership positions are still
being handed over to Democrats, giving them the power to thwart
conservative legislation, promote their woke agenda, and raise
money to elect Democrats.

Last session, Texas House Republicans awarded approximately 40%
of House committee chairmanships to Democrats. This includes
putting Democrats in charge of important committees like Public
Education, Business & Industry, and Criminal Jurisprudence.

We are calling for House Republicans to end the practice of
appointing Democrats to positions of power.

Rep. Bryan Slaton
Rep. Tony Tinderholt
Rep. Matt Schaefer
Rep. Steve Toth
Rep. Cody Vasut
Rep. Matt Shaheen
Rep. Briscoe Cain
Rep. Valoree Swanson
Rep. Brian Harrison
Rep-Elect. Ellen Troxclair
Rep-Elect. Carrie Isaac
Rep-Elect. Nate Schatzline
Rep-Elect. Terri Leo Wilson
Rep-Elect. Mark Dorazio
Rep-Elect. Ben Baumgarner
Rep-Elect. Caroline Harris
Rep-Elect. Richard Hayes
Rep. Gary Gates

These are the only Republican Representatives of which we are
aware who have publicly called to end the practice of awarding
committee chairmanships to Democrats. We need ALL Republican
elected officials to publicly state they will vote to BAN
DEMOCRAT COMMITTEE CHAIRS in the House rules.

We only have until early January to gain support before the Texas
House of Representatives adopts formal rules in one of their
first meetings.

Here's what we need you to do:

Step 1) Call your State Representative; a phone call is more
effective than an email. If you don't know who your
Representative is or their phone number, click here:

Step 2) Urge them to release a public statement (tweet, facebook
post, mass email, or press release) supporting House Rules that
ban Committee Chairs of the minority party. If they have already
made a public statement banning Democrat Committee Chairs, thank
them.

EXTRA CREDIT: Use the hashtag #NoDemChairs on social media to
encourage your friends to call and keep track of who has made
statements as well!

Chairing a committee allows a Democrat to single-handedly block
legislation from passing and provides them the power to push
their far-left radical agenda. We can't let that happen-contact
your legislators today!
