The promise of America is still out there

Hank Johnson for Congress We just haven't realized it yet. John, On this day 158 years ago, slavery was ended in America. That's when Union soldiers arrived in Galveston, Texas, to declare that all people who had been enslaved were free. The Emancipation Proclamation had been in effec…

If I’m honest...

Hank Johnson for Congress Hi John, I’m messaging you because my team has just told me that we’re still behind our mid-month grassroots fundraising goal. I don’t like having to send these emails, but if I’m honest, we do need the help. If you’re able to help us out, will you make a contribution…

We can beat Ted Cruz

Hank Johnson for Congress But we all need to commit. Hi John, I wanted to make sure you heard that my friend Colin Allred is challenging Ted Cruz and running for the U.S. Senate. I’m excited to support Colin — a common-sense voice of decency working for Texans — against a spineless M…

Trump indictment UNSEALED. Our courts are working.

The hypocrisy is too much to take

We have to play the game, to change the game

Hank Johnson for Congress Hi John, It’s Mereda, and I wanted to share something my husband Hank just said. He told me that it’s not fair to his supporters that he has to keep asking them to dig deep and make financial contributions. He said, “Democracy should be about action, not money.” It’s …

How did it come to this?

A picture is worth 751 opinions.
