This win is for every Texan who’s ever wondered if anyone is listening. I heard you, we heard you, and tonight the world hears you.
We just sent a message to every billionaire mega-donor, every trillionaire mega-donor, every corrupt defender of this broken political system in this state, in this country. Power belongs to the people.
For five decades now, billionaire megadonors have been buying politicians in both political parties, and then those puppets turn around and rig the rules of the economy in favor of those megadonors at our expense.
In this race, we went up against our own Goliaths. The richest man in the world, the most powerful man in the world and the entire Washington, DC establishment.
