We have to get serious. We have to be absolutely ruthless about getting back in power.

This state, under Greg Abbott, has moved so far away from everything that matters to all of us that there is going to be a price to pay. And we`re going to see that in him being defeated in this election in November.

This total abortion ban, without exception for rape or incest -- one of the most extreme laws in this country, is not a reflection of who we are in the state of Texas.

When we beat him on the night of November 8th, we set a far different, better, brighter course not just for Texas, but given this state’s outsized influence on American politics, we’ll do it for the United States of America, as well.
