John, this is big.
A heavyweight group in Texas just announced that they’re supporting our candidate for District Attorney in Houston, Audia Jones!
Audia’s momentum is clear. But the incumbent, Kim Ogg, who has failed on all her promises of reform – has more money in the bank. It will be extremely difficult to unseat her.
Audia will be heavily outspent. That’s why we’re calling on you:
This is a really important race. Houston is ground zero for mass incarceration, but it can also be ground zero for change. If we help Audia win, it will send ripples everywhere and pave the way for more victories that will save lives and reduce the number of people in prison.
Texas Organizing Project’s endorsement sends a huge message: In 2016, they worked hard to help Kim Ogg win. But now – after her lies about reform, after her doubling down on the incarceration machine and the death penalty – this major organizing group is all-in to defeat her by electing Audia Jones.
Audia is the reformer that Houston urgently needs. But it will take all of us to win.
Counting on you,
Real Justice
