Join the Movement

Most Texans want to be able to provide for themselves and their families, regardless of our color, creed, or hometown. Yet we have politicians who divide and distract people so that they can send further kickbacks to their megadonors, lobbyists, and the greedy few who rigged the rules against working people, both pricing-gouging us and causing 1 in 5 Texas kids to go hungry. When we come together to reject their scapegoating, we can create an economy that works for all Texans -- from the farm to the table, from the biggest cities to the smallest communities.
