Kansas. Alaska. Next up: Texas.

Hi Friend, In another huge upset, Democrats in Alaska were able to defeat Sarah Palin last night and send the state’s first Democratic Congressperson to D.C. in 50 years. This follows Kansas -- another state even redder than Texas -- voting in a landslide to protect abortion rights earlier in A…

It’s happening today

Friend, Today, Texas’s trigger law officially goes into effect, completely outlawing abortion without exception in the state. We’ve known this day would come, but that doesn’t make it any easier. My heart breaks for millions of women across Texas. We grieve for those who will be forced to carry…

We can't let our seniors down, Friend

Beto let it fly, and I don't blame him one bit. Friend, Texas Democrats take pride in going high when Republicans go low. But last night in Mineral Wells – Beto let it fly. And honestly, I don't blame him one bit. There is nothing cute or funny about the gun violence epidemic running rampant in…

Friend, they’ve gone too far

Hi Friend, Last week, our Texas Republican Congressional delegation proved yet again how far they are willing to go to take our state back to the dark ages. Nearly all of them voted against protecting access to contraception and same-sex marriage. In 2022, that's unacceptable. Friend, Republica…
