The only way to make our democracy stronger is if we fight for it. And that starts by electing people who know you, who see you, and who understand what you’re going through. So vote for Democrats up and down the ballot on Election Day.

You’ve only got six days left to vote in the midterms – and while I know you’ve heard this a million times already, this election really is too important to sit out. In many places, your vote could make the difference.

Retweet if you're ready to elect the first Latina Attorney General in Texas and kick an unethical, anti-choice, and anti-democracy radical out of office.

Just horrifying and absurd in the wake of SCOTUS ruling: Pregnant women with cancer diagnoses may face wrenching choices, since questions will arise about how to care for them in states where women are unable to terminate pregnancies. https://t.co/AfceGvwFOu via @ginakolata

Urgent questions arise about how care of pregnant women with cancer will change in states where women are unable to terminate pregnancies.

Read the fine print: the concerted attacks Greg Abbott, Dan Patrick & Ken Paxton are waging against the well-being of Texas women are not only contradictory to Texas values but continue to be devastating AND deadly. The full piece in @HoustonChron Sunday edition👏📰

Buttigieg in response to Fox News asking about the appropriateness of his husband's tweet abt Kavanaugh being protested at dinner: "Any public figure should be free from violence, intimidation & harassment, but should never be free from criticism or ppl exercising their 1a right"

One of the anti-abortion movement's most durable and effective tactics was to use the first amendment to protest outside private establishments in order to make the people inside them feel uncomfortable.

Did you know that the Texas State Bar Association is currently suing Ken Paxton for professional misconduct and he could be DISBARRED? Texas’ Attorney General could soon lose his LICENSE TO PRACTICE LAW IN THE STATE OF TEXAS. We need to vote him out.

No more attacks on women. No more $10,000 bounties. As governor, I will fight for a woman’s freedom to make her own decisions about her own body, health care, and future.
