Friend, do you ❤️ TX Public Schools?

Show your support in style! Friend, At this point, it couldn’t be any clearer: Texas Republicans are working hard to defund public education -- and to send our tax dollars to wealthy, privately-owned institutions while they leave our public schools severely underfunded. Gutting Texas public schoo…

Ted Cruz: term limits for thee, not for me

Friend, Over the past few weeks, Ted Cruz has been talking up his new bill limiting U.S. Senators to two terms, even as he actively plans to run for his third term. The man’s hypocrisy truly knows no bounds. Make no mistake, Friend: taking steps to end political entrenchment is a noble goal. Ju…
