Texas isnโt Donald Trumpโs personal playground, and workers will stand up and fight back against these attacks!

I stand in support of the Texas House Democratic Representatives. They are using the only tool they have to protect the voters of Texas who have overwhelmingly spoken and donโt want politicians gerrymandering our state again.

The people of Texas urged us to do anything we could to stop the Trump Regime's attempt to take political power away from millions of working families.
We heard you.
Thatโs why weโve decided to deny quorum and fight this power grab with everything weโve got. #txlege
My least favorite brand of doomerism is talking about how we canโt fix any of this and why offered solutions are unworkable and asserting that the electorate is fixed and unchangeable. โCanโtโ is the enemy right now.

Rep. Ramon Romero Jr. just torched Trumpโs rigged redistricting scheme and walked out with Texas Democrats to stop a racist, power-hungry map designed to silence voters.
โWe didnโt start this fightโDonald Trump did.โ
Now theyโre fighting back.
Stand with them.
