Hi! I am the Executive Director for the
@texasdemocrats
. Let me set the record straight.
No one has invested more in our party than
@colinallredTX
. He has done the hard work to win. He’s criss-crossed our state holding events of all sizes, meeting Texans where they are.
New this AM: Some Dems think
@ColinAllredTX
’s campaign is too passive and should look more like
@BetoORourke
’s 2018 bid against
@tedcruz
. Allred’s allies say it’s a totally different environment and his more methodical approach is working.

In Texas, Ken Paxton can make your medical decisions for you — even if that means your life is on the line.
Katie Cox should not have to wait for a series of court rulings to determine her future. And neither should you.
BREAKING: Late tonight, the Texas Supreme Court temporarily halted a lower court ruling that would have allowed Kate Cox, our plaintiff with severe pregnancy complications, to have an abortion to protect her health and future fertility.

I am running for re-election as Chairwoman of the Democratic Party of Virginia. Virginia has come so far, but there is still work to be done. Now is the time to build on and protect the progress we have made. I hope to earn your vote on March 19th, and make you proud.

Kansas. Wisconsin. And now, Ohio.
Voters across the country are explicitly saying with one voice: we will not accept the far-right agenda of these ultra-MAGA extremists. We’re not going to cede control of our bodies — or our freedoms.
A decisive defeat for abortion foes in Ohio, their seventh such loss since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, has sent alarm bells ringing among some Republicans and prominent conservatives over the salience of the issue.

The fact that you ever touted Cuccinelli as an ally and brought him into work with your org - despite his well known racists positions - shows you have a blind spot and are not listening to communities of color.
@marcussimon
Facts matter, Delegate. And Cuccinelli hasn't been involved in any way with drafting November's ballot measure (the article you tweeted is from 19 months ago). But since you brought it up, here's a handy reminder of who's really on the Dream Team:
