@KenPaxtonTX has failed Texans again & again:
Voter suppression
Wasteful spending
Encouraged the Jan 6 attack on our Capital
Tried to overturn a free & fair election
Abandoned Texans last month during the winter storm
It's time to clean house. It's time for spring cleaning. 1/7
I'm Joe Jaworski. A Democrat running to unseat @TXAG#KenPaxton. As your next AG, I promise to:
- Never embarrass you in the SCOTUS
- Support the ACA
- Lead a statewide effort to legalize adult-use cannabis
- Support local decision-making authority 2/7
I promise to:
- Create a Voter Access Division that will prosecute what little fraud exists & make it easier for every eligible Texan to vote. Paxton says: “No vote by mail, no after hours voting for shift workers, no drive through voting & only one drop box per county!” 3/7
Here’s my message to Ken Paxton: 4/7
- Create a Civil Rights Division to protect the civil rights of all Texans. Our civil rights are protected by state & federal law. You should be able to count on the @TXAG to protect civil rights & you can expect my Civil Rights Division to keep the playing field fair. 5/7
I want to replace Paxton & work for ALL Texans, but I need your help.
Can you do 1 or more of these:
- RT & follow @JaworskiForTX
- Give $5 to help us stand strong against Paxton & the GOP coffers
- Sign up for campaign updates & to volunteer: jaworskifortexas.com 6/7
Nearly five decades ago my grandfather, Leon Jaworski, took over as Watergate special prosecutor after the shocking Saturday Night Massacre. He has had a profound impact on my life.
He had the guts to take on corruption in our nation’s highest office by fighting for justice in our nation’s highest court. And he succeeded because he fought for one basic principle: no one is above the law.
My grandfather fought for America. He was a leader in the legal profession, serving in the US Army judge advocate general's department in WWII, becoming chief of the trial section of the war crimes branch.
I will help lead a statewide effort to legalize adult-use recreational purpose cannabis. Texas is ready for a regulated, pro business free market that will create 30,000 direct industry jobs and raise over $1B in revenue every year. 1/6
When we pass legislation to legalize adult-use recreational & medical marijuana it will allow us to treat veterans’ PTSD & chronic pain, & offer a wellness alternative to opioids so Texas can fight a winning war on addiction. It will allow TX to usher in positive and long... 2/6
overdue social & criminal justice reform. The war on cannabis has disproportionately affected young people & POC for decades. By legalizing it, we can put an end to a practice that has unfairly affected so many POC & their families, & find a path towards healing. 3/6
Crisis makes the obscure suddenly clear, and from our current crisis comes clarity. How did we get here? By trusting our leaders to do the right thing. But they failed us; blaming and vacationing. How do we move forward? 1/5
Support a vision of Texas where we focus on good government, rather than culture wars. Texas has immense resources. Let’s support each other and positively invest in our future. We are all in this together. 2/5
Community style local government is one of Texas’s greatest resources. We’re not out of the woods yet, and I applaud local leaders - mayors like Galveston’s Craig Brown and Brownsville’s Trey Mendez who are stepping up. 3/5
We wake up this morning to learn that Texas has sued Georgia, Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. Ken Paxton has further disgraced the Office of Texas Attorney General with this appalling filing in the United States Supreme Court yesterday, the sole purpose of which is to (1/6)
make a last ditch attempt to succeed where President Trump’s personal attorney Rudy Guliani has repeatedly failed. It is highly suspect to see the State of Texas is not represented by its own Solicitor General in the Supreme Court, but instead by a “special counsel” (2/6)
Lawrence Joseph. This is all we need to know about the constitutional integrity of this ill-advised pleading, which I hope will be met with uniform rejection by all four states that were sued and by our esteemed Justices of the United States Supreme Court.
