It’s an absolute tragedy if this voter restriction law goes through in Texas.

It was absolutely a mistake. I don`t even know. It was a colossal failure, not just a mistake.

Democrats standing are the good guys. We need to be the good guys right now because we see what the bad guys are doing.

We need to save our democracy and we need to save it like yesterday.

We have a governor that is hell bent on doing whatever it takes to infringe upon the voting rights of the majority of Texans.
