Greg Abbott MUST resign

Add your name to send a message   Y’all, this report is unbelievable … the more we learn about the devastating mass shooting in Uvalde, the more we lose faith in our leaders. Look at this:  “Nearly 400 law enforcement officials rushed to mass shooting that left 21 people dead at a…

There's a Republican gunning for control of Harris County

  Y'all, Texas’ largest county deserves honest government. Republican Alex Mealer wants to run Harris County -- but we took one look at her fundraising, and found MASSIVE conflicts of interest that you NEED to hear about. First, she’s taken over $63,000 from companies doing busines…

it just gets worse and worse

  Hey y'all,  I hope you saw our earlier email about Greg Abbott’s wholly underwhelming response to the recent investigation into systemic failings of the Uvalde Police Department (it’s forwarded below). The real truth is, the failure starts all the way at the very top — with Greg …

Greg Abbott must act on Uvalde

Add your name   Hey y'all,  Earlier this week, Gov. Greg Abbott released a wholly disappointing, but frankly, unsurprising comment about the devastating shooting in Uvalde. He conceded that the recent reports showing horrible inaction from law enforcement “raise serious concerns abo…
