Texas has open primaries! That means that ALL Texas voters can participate VOTE! Voters who don’t strongly identify with any political party can and should carefully consider the choices and participate in one of the primaries or conventions. my.lwv.org/texas/election-in…

Why can't women be themselves when they run for office? washingtonpost.com/news/powe…

Why can’t women just be themselves when they run for office?

While we're past the point of asking where a woman's children are, women in politics say we're not at parity — yet.

"You’re way more qualified than you think." ⬅️ @ericas op-ed in @TeenVogue about why, "We have to create pathways for women and people of color, who frequently start on campaigns as volunteers or field organizers, to move up and become leaders." teenvogue.com/story/more-wom…

Dr. King was 26 when the Montgomery bus boycott began. He started small, rallying others who believed their efforts mattered, pressing on through challenges and doubts to change our world for the better. A permanent inspiration for the rest of us to keep pushing towards justice.
