How you can help Texans in need

Friend, I'm reaching out to ask for your urgent help. A devastating winter storm has shut down power and plumbing for millions of Texans. Many families have gone without food or water for days, and now we're even hearing increasing reports of loved ones dying from cold, fires, or carbon monoxi…

Onward

Hi y'all, I'm not a career politician, and running for Senate was never my plan. I'm just one of the millions of Texans who have seen the world we're giving our children and thought "hell no." That's why I am so proud and incredibly grateful that you supported me in this campaign. Together, we…

Sen. Cornyn is so desperate he's making fake videos

San Antonio Current: "Late attack ad by John Cornyn manipulates video to put words in opponent MJ Hegar's mouth" Sen. Cornyn's lies aren't enough to win him this election, so he's resorting to dirty tricks too. This is serious, y'all -- he's manipulating a video of MJ in a new ad and lying about …

This is HUGE, team! Did you see that former President Barack Obama endorsed MJ for Senate? He knows Texas is the biggest battleground state of 2020 -- and as a decorated combat veteran and working mom, MJ can win the battle. With multiple polls putting a win for MJ within the margin of error, …
