Good people of Texas: vote @RochelleMGarza and please wake up! #Election2022

.@POTUS is INTERCEPTING suspects on the terrorist watchlist; you cite evidence of a functioning border security system. Stop w/the games, @GovAbbott . We desperately need you to do your job & protect Texas school children from dangerous criminals w/easy access to AR-15s.
80+ terrorists on the Terrorist Watchlist have been encountered along our southern border since Pres. Biden took office. His refusal to secure the border is a direct threat to our national security. Texas is stepping up to protect Americans from these dangerous criminals.

Whole Foods’ CEO said “socialists are taking over” in the US: “…with the way freedom of speech is today, the movement on gun control, a lot of the liberties I’ve taken for granted most of my life are under threat.” 🙄 independent.co.uk/news/world…

NO MATTER WHAT those dorks @ the Supreme Court say about abortion — you (yes, YOU!) can get abortion pills mailed to you no matter where you live. Mifepristone + Misoprostol 💊 💊 @AidAccessUSA does “advanced provision” which means you don’t have to be pregnant to get them!

If you don’t live in Texas, it might be hard to understand this but our governor has an irrational hatred of the state’s capitol of Austin, so suggestions of boycotts of Austin events and businesses and industries unfortunately just kind of play into his hands

It's difficult to think that my daughter's generation may not have the same freedoms as mine or my mother's. Reproductive justice is essential to social equity and an individual's economic security. The Senate must act by passing the Women's Health Protection Act. #RoeAnniversary

Why is it so hard to pass a working class agenda? Not a single Republican vote for childcare, pre-school, a child allowance, vision, dental or hearing for seniors, free community college, or solar or wind investments. Not 1 Republican Senator or Rep is for any of these programs.

Proud to join scores of ATX environmentalists, social justice advocates, union organizers, & progressive leaders at the @NoWayPropA kick-off. Prop A would cause deep cuts in our libraries, parks, fire, & EMS. It will make Austin less safe. 📸: @texrising – at Austin, TX

Prop A is a dangerous and fiscally irresponsible ballot measure. It would force #ATX to cut essential services to spend hundreds of millions more on the police dept., instead of investing in a comprehensive approach to public safety. Join us & vote NO WAY on Prop A! #NoWayPropA

SB8 becomes law tomorrow in Texas, banning abortion before many women know they’re pregnant. HB1280 creates felonies for doctors, in case Roe v Wade is overturned. SB4 in the special session, goes even further. And people still think wearing a mask infringes on their rights?

In 2018 SCOTUS ruled 7-2 that Mastercake Cakeshop was within its religious rights to refuse to bake a cake for a gay wedding—if I were a TX business trying to enforce public health standards for guests I would simply say I’m doing it for religious reasons. google.com/amp/s/amp.cnn.com…

More Republicans are out today due to Covid, about 10. They will need to quarantine for 2 weeks…there will likely be no quorum in Abbott’s second suppression session.

Today is a good day to remind folks that the state of Texas spent millions of taxpayer dollars and 22,000 staff hours investigating voter fraud. They have convicted ZERO cases of intentional voter fraud. Zero.

AUSTIN (AP) – Texas, a troubled border province, today announced it did not have energy reserves for ongoing operation in the event of any kind of weather. The religious separatist commissar Greg Abbot, responsible for infrastructure under his tenure, continued to deflect blame.
