Texas House Minority Leader Gene Wu said on Saturday that the Democrats fighting for democracy are being supported by people who are donating their food and rent money to help them.
It’s definitely going to take money and a lot of groundwork for us to save our democracy! I’ve been donating and will continue to do what I can to support these leaders of democracy ❤️
I deleted the Act Blue link that is not the link to directly support the Texas Democrats. The donation button for the Texas Democrats is on the Texas House Democratic Caucus website. Third parties like Act Blue take a cut of donations. —Jason
It would be best if all political figures, and their campaigns, were only funded by ordinary voters (with a legislated maximum donation, as in most REAL democracies like Canada). Otherwise, politicians should wear team jerseys with their sponsors' names on them.
Unfortunately it'll do nothing unless these democrats start calling for REAL action. Eventually the Republicans will just hold a quorum and declare it legal, why do they care what anyone thinks? They're in charge they'll just change the rules. There is no bottom or low they will not go to. These are profoundly evil people. If we don't use the one tool we have, our labor, we can kiss democracy goodbye.
What an opportunity, what a save, what a great development, from these Texas Super Heroes, doing their part-time jobs very full time. Only one question: Where can we donate to support them?
If we the American People keep fighting and sticking with the Democrats we might just win this war and be able to get rid of the child raping pedophiles in the White House and in office
This should be telling every Democrat that the American people have had it. We have sat listening to Trump blame everything on the Democrats, even his involvement with Epstein. Now Trump is using more tax dollars for his justice department cult to go after Obama and God knows who else. We need action! We are tired and ready to support everyone who is taking action. Thank you Texas Democrats, Illinois, New York and of course California. We cannot stop now! It’s now or never.
This article makes me so angry. You're telling me the billions that the democrats bring is isn't enough to pay for the hotels and food of the Texas delegation? Get out of here all these people do is solicit money. These people are not calling for any real action. They keep saying "stand up! fight for democracy! You can do that by sending money here..." GTFOH!!! Start calling for REAL action!!! The ONLY way we are going to take back our democracy is through a GENERAL STRIKE. Period. Full stop. They don't CARE if we protest on a freaking Saturday!!! Why would they!? They WOULD care if millions of Americans stopped going to work and shut down the entire economy though. These democrats are NOT the leaders we need, this is a full on coup on our democracy by the right wing and it is going to require MAJOR, ORGANIZED, PAINFUL action or we can kiss it all goodbye. Sending $20 to the democrats isn't going to get donald trump out of office or even stop him from cheating in the elections. The democrats have ZERO power. They are barking in the wind as our country is dismantled bit by bit for the billionaires. CALL FOR A GENERAL STRIKE!!!! Every leader on the left should be organizing with every labor union and every media outlet. SET A DATE! WE CAN WIN THIS!
I think it really depends on your personal pocketbook, no question about it. I am all for supporting the TX Democrats because of what’s happening with the redistricting plan the Republicans have unfortunately come up with, in a nutshell. The Democrats must have a positive vision for this country, that’s for sure. They can work things out with multiple blue state Governors, with a genuine mixture of meaning, purpose, and conviction.
Is alright for Elon Musk. To donate over $250 million to Trump in 2020 presidential campaign. The GOPs are trying to stop Beto O’Rourke from helping Texas democrats legislators financially. So they can pay their daily bills. The real issue is that in 2020. All 50 states have restructure congressional districts. It is restructured every 10 years. I think it’s unconstitutional. To do it on the command of the current president. To make sure he has a majority in Congress after 2026 election. Gerrymandering is the word
What don't people understand about THIS IS A COUP???? They don't care if it's illegal! They have proven themselves to not care about anything but attaining power at ANY cost. The ONLY way we stop this is with a drastic labor action called a GENERAL STRIKE. Millions of Americans not going to work will shut down the economy. This is how regime change is affected, not by donating to some powerless lawmakers in a red state. Either that or blue states need to just leave the union, stop sending tax dollars to WA.

Me too! There are many ways to save our democracy, not just one way!

I am so proud of the Dems for doing this and the people for stepping up to come to their aid.
