I’m proud to be a Texan. But every day, Greg Abbott and Ted Cruz embarrass our state and undermine the rights of the people who live here.

This week, Greg Abbott signed a bill banning abortion after six weeks, before most pregnancies are even detected. He undermined the health care of millions of people, but claimed the bill was “pro-life.” Then hours later, he allowed the execution of Quintin Jones—the 51st person put to death under his watch.

At the same time, Republicans in the Senate are trying to block a commission to investigate the insurrection at our Capitol on January 6—an attack that was inspired in part by our senator, Ted Cruz. He spread lies and is now trying to cover up the violence he helped inspire.

Texas needs leaders that fight for all Texans, not ones that attack them for political gain. Can you make a donation today to help us lay the groundwork to defeat Abbott and Cruz?

Texans were failed by our statewide leaders this week...and every week. On top of his attacks on reproductive health, Gov. Abbott is now blocking the additional $300 in unemployment assistance to Texans out of work. It costs our state nothing, but would help millions of families pay their rent, buy groceries, or get their kids to school.

These are the kinds of decisions we get from politicians who are more worried about their reelection than their constituents. That’s why we need new leadership—and I hope you’ll join us to help make that happen.

People First is laying the groundwork to defeat Abbott and Cruz and elect great candidates across our state. Make a donation today to support our work.

Thank you,
