Checking in from the field

  Hi there, I'm taking a quick break from our team's current canvass to ask for your help one last time today. With just 10 hours left, we still need to raise $1,676 to meet our January goal. If we make it, we'll have the resources to double the number of doors knocked between now and the primary…

An attack on Texans' right to choose

Roger Williams can’t say he is "pro-life" and then turn around and support policies that gut public education, take healthcare from the most vulnerable in our society, and break up famillies.                                             Friend, Last week, as we marked the 47th anniversary…
