His redistricting push didn’t work, so now he’s trying to purge voter rolls [View this email in your browser.]([link removed]

Hi John,

This is going to be a long email because there’s a lot to tell you about how the Trump Administration has been preparing to rig the mid-term election and then the presidential election after that.

In short, Trump et al. are trying to take control of the voter rolls with the aim of preventing Democrats from voting, and **Texas needs an Attorney General who will sue the Trump Administration to stop it.**

Trump already tried to stack the deck in his favor by pressing Republican-dominated state legislatures to engage in a cynical, mid-decade redistricting that would create more Republican seats in Congress. **Over my objection and against my vote in the Texas Senate,** the Texas legislature jammed through a redistricting plan and Greg Abbott signed it into law.

But Trump’s momentum fizzled in other states. Indiana Republicans, to their great credit, refused to bow to Trump’s demands. Meanwhile California voters approved their own redistricting to offset Trump’s seat gains in Texas.

So now, deeply unpopular as a party, and pretty much stuck with weak results from redistricting, Trump and his team know they have to find a way to override the will of the voters, which, after all, will be to throw them out.

***Here’s their plan.*** Trump has demanded that states provide their confidential voter-roll data to the U.S. Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division (whose name now carries cold Orwellian irony, as those who are supposed to protect our rights now set out to infringe them).

The “Civil Rights Division” plans to run the voter rolls against error-prone commercial databases (controlled by whom?) and “find” people who shouldn’t be allowed to vote despite being registered by their own states.

Remember when Trump demanded that Georgia “find” enough votes for him to win the 2020 election? This is the reverse: now he wants to “find” enough people to disqualify from voting for the Republicans to win in 2026.

*What can the Texas AG do about it?* **None of this is legal.** The Constitution gives states primary authority over elections, including registering voters, and neither the Constitution nor any other law allows the President and his Executive Branch to manage state voter rolls. There is even a legal question as to whether the President can require states to turn them over at all.

This is but one of multiple actions the Trump Administration is taking to manipulate state voting laws to favor Republicans. They also are trying to decertify thousands of voting machines, along with a host of tactics to make voting more difficult or impossible in heavily Democratic areas.

**The Texas Attorney General has the authority to challenge this illegal action** by the federal government. Of course, Ken Paxton isn’t going to do it. And you can be sure that neither would any of my Republican opponents in the race for AG.

That’s why **we need a Democrat in the Texas Attorney General’s office:** to act a check to power when Republicans try – or anyone tries – to infringe on citizens’ rights.

Greg Abbott said that his job as Attorney General was to go to the office, sue the federal government, and go home. There’s more to the job than suing the federal government, but sometimes that’s what needs to be done.

I**f you believe Texans deserve an attorney general who will strike back against the Trump Administration's illegal overreach — into voting or anything else — then *I am the right candidate for you****.* **[As we head into 2026, we need to prove the power of our movement.
