1/ I'm proud of every Texan who has marched, rallied, called their state legislators & spent hours upon hours at the state capitol trying to stop this anti-voter bill from passing.
Today’s vote on SB 1 may have you doubting whether all that effort made a difference. But it did.

2/ You forced Republican lawmakers to walk back on some of SB 1's worst provisions, brought national attention to the fight for democracy in Texas, and lit a fire under Congress to make progress on legislation that can give us a fighting chance to save democracy in America.
3/ Now isn't the time to give up or give in. If we push President Biden to do everything in his power to reform the filibuster, we can pass the For the People Act & John Lewis Voting Rights Act—and roll back anti-voter laws in Texas and across the country. whitehouse.gov/contact/
4/ And while we push at the federal level, let's also commit ourselves to registering all 3 million eligible, but unregistered voters in the state of Texas. Let's bring as many people into our democracy and into this fight as we can.
