#ForwardParty #RunForward #FairVotes #RCV

Texans know fairness when they see it.🎡 So we’re bringing #RCV to the State Fair and asking: what’s the #1 Texas fair food?

We're also recognizing the folks who lead by example this month — the parents, veterans, teachers, and local leaders who make Texas work.
See comments for how to take action!

For everyone worried about the impact of the government shutdown, don't worry: construction of the White House ballroom will continue.

Priorities...

It's funded by private donations. If that feels concerning to you, we feel it too.

Forward Party - Not Left. Not Right. FORWARD. Not Left. Not Right. Forward

"Once a country is habituated to liars, it takes generations to bring the truth back." - Gore Vidal, writer (3 Oct 1925-2012) It’s only too true and that’s why we have to elect people who will stand up to the lies - forwardparty.com.

NEWS FLASH!

No matter which state you live in, active or not, we're launching a new National Volunteer Program that you can take part in!

Join us for the kickoff party and merch giveaway on October 7: home.forwardparty.com/nvp_kickoff_...

In a remarkable turn for a country historically known for its optimism, Americans now believe the crisis of division cannot be overcome--a crisis within a crisis.

Forward stands for solutions, not stalemates. America deserves leaders who do their jobs.

#GovernmentShutdown #ForwardTogether

Congress’s #1 job is to keep the government running. Instead, we’re stuck in another shutdown.

Families pay the price while politicians play partisan political games.

The 2025 Shutdown Well, the federal government is now shutting down because Congress couldn’t come to a deal to extend funding.

What led to the government shutdown and what comes next? blog.andrewyang.com/p/the-2025-s...

There is a government shutdown. We must do better.

Our view.

Fear and Hope in Venezuela as U.S. Warships Lurk

I feel like the NYT buried the lede:

“…one woman who identified herself as the wife of one of the dead men said that her husband was a fisherman with four children who left one day for work and never came back.”

Vote in the Taste of Texas Chili Cook-off 👉 www.texasforwardparty.org/taste-of-tex...

If we went back to tradition, Texas chili would be simple: meat + chiles, no beans. 🌶️

That’s the *Bowl of Red* — the same chili the San Antonio Chili Queens served in the 1800s.

Is it still the real Texas chili today? You decide!

Check out our Taste of Texas Chili RCV Cook-off 👇 Link below

Beans? No beans? Noodles?!? Let’s settle this once and for all, Texas!🌶️

Terrible news about Charlie Kirk - political violence has no place in this country. 🙏🇺🇸

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Charlie Kirk and his Family. No person, no matter their view, should be the victim of political violence. We pray for our nation today as well to help heal the wounds of partisan politics.

Welcome Blanco, Callahan, Cass, Kerr, Madison, Midland, Milam, San Jacinto, and Walker Counties!

We did miss our August goal, but here’s the good news—we added 9 new counties with pledges!

We’ll keep pushing to hit 100 and growing the Forward community in Texas.👉 www.txfwd.org/ballot_access

While the headlines remind us of division and distrust, we can choose a different path. We call on you to reject the zero-sum politics of the past, demand leaders who solve problems, and build a democracy where every voice counts.

We started with 84 pledged counties this month and today we’re at 92! Our August goal: 100 counties. With 3 days left, we need your help to finish strong!

Every new supporter, volunteer, and pledge is a signal Texans are tired of games and ready for a new path forward. 👉 www.txfwd.org/ballot_access

Forward Party - Not Left. Not Right. FORWARD. Not Left. Not Right. Forward

When we say "we can do better," it seems obvious.

And it is. Even to the two-party system.

That's why it puts so much effort into preventing voters from making it better.

Join us while we show them we'll do it anyway: www.forwardparty.com

Forward Comms Director John Goodwin channels the frustration and outright concern that millions of Americans feel.
