John,

We recently held 7 town halls in Congressional Districts represented by Republicans – from Amarillo and Wichita Falls to Garland and Fort Bend County.

Nobody at those meetings stood up and asked for their representative to take food away from kids, kick millions of families off their health care, jack up our costs, or close down more of our rural hospitals in the least insured state in the nation.

Yet every Texas Republican in the House just cruelly voted to do so anyway, and our senators are giddy to do the same.

Why? By hurting our neighbors and communities, they can once again give away our tax dollars to their billionaire donors, the wealthiest corporations, and Trump’s favorite oligarchs.

What do we do about it? We fight back. We organize everywhere, contest every race up and down the ballot, and do the work to win political power. Texas can help take back the House, flip the Senate, check Trump, and deliver a government that delivers for the people.

There are two actions you can take right now to fight back:

1. Sign up to volunteer with Powered by People. If you’re in Texas or elsewhere, I hope you’ll get involved.
2. Chip in a few bucks to support our work. I’m a proud Powered by People volunteer—grassroots donations make our organizing work possible.

More soon,

Beto
