Texas families need more than this

  While families in Uvalde grieve the worst days of their lives, Texas Republicans continue to shirk their responsibilities.   Just this week, Greg Abbott called for the formation of a special legislative committee to study the causes of school mass shootings. But the order was ent…

Cruelty, incompetence, and corruption

Greg Abbott was counting dollars while they were counting bodies.   Dear Friend, Last week made it more clear than ever that if we care about protecting the lives of our fellow Texans, if we want every child in this state to be healthy and happy, if we want to safeguard those who a…

We want a state we can be proud of again

  Y'all, today is the last day of what was a terrible month in Texas.   We’ve seen what true leadership looks like - and the damage bad leaders can do. After telling the world that 19 children had been killed, Greg Abbott attended a fundraiser 300 miles away, and then misled the pr…

Abbott was booed

  Yesterday, when Greg Abbott went to Robb Elementary in Uvalde, he was booed by the crowd gathered there to mourn.   We stand with them.  4 years ago, Greg Abbott promised grieving parents at Santa Fe High School that he would take action to stop gun violence in Texas. He told the…

Beto O'Rourke is standing up for the children of Texas, let's have his back

  Beto O'Rourke just said what is on the minds of millions of Americans when he interrupted Greg Abbott's sham press conference about yesterday's mass shooting in Uvalde.  He called out Abbott's failure to do anything to address the widespread availability of guns in our state. Tak…

Trump’s loyal foot soldier

  Trump was just here in Texas, y'all, and he was all too proud to tout his loyal foot soldier, Gov. Greg Abbott:   Greg Abbott embodies Trumpism and everything that comes with it -- right-wing extremism, hate-filled rhetoric, policies rooted in false realities -- dangerous and ho…

Fire Abbott. Fix the power grid.

  Greg Abbott continues to fail Texans every single day.   Last week, ERCOT (Texas’s largest power provider) announced that SIX power plants had gone down across the state. They asked Texans to conserve power. This is Greg Abbott’s doing, and Texans are suffering because of it. Cl…

Freedom to choose is on the ballot
