Trump and Abbott’s racist redistricting plan will do real harm to workers across Texas. It splits up working-class communities that share schools and services to prevent them from electing representatives that would serve their best interest. #txlege. @AFSCME @HOPE_AFSCME

Redistricting isn’t just political bullshit we can ignore — it will have catastrophic consequences for Texas, the country, and our democracy. Since Greg Abbott won’t stand up to Donald Trump, we have to show up in force to make our voices so loud they can’t ignore us.

They’re trying to silence Texas workers and rig the outcomes before we even get to the ballot box. So we’re fighting back at the #txlege! Here’s how you can take action:.

Gerrymandering helps no one except the people desperately trying to hold onto power. That’s why workers and allies rallied in nearly 100-degree heat to show our opposition to this redistricting scheme!. @TCCLC_AFLCIO @tevitauhatafe

Abbott & Trump’s redistricting scheme would make it more difficult for veterans to access the health care & benefits that they earned. This isn’t about left or right, it’s about right & wrong. @CWAUnion Local 6215 member Britni Cuington testified at Arlington's #txlege hearing:

Texas belongs to the people, and we demand maps and policies that reflect us, not repress us. @GoIUPAT's Jennifer Hernandez was one of the few able to testify in Houston at the #txlege redistricting hearing. We will fight for districts that keep our communities together!

Instead of focusing on the issues Texas workers are facing, our lawmakers are intent on pushing forward a redistricting plan that no one asked for. We need leaders who put Texans first! #txlege
