Today’s Action: Send texts to win a Senate seat in Texas!

Democratic Senate candidate Beto O’Rourke is coming in strong against Texas Republican incumbent Ted Cruz, in a race that could produce the first Democratic Texas Senator in over 25 years. O’Rourke is a fully progressive candidate on every issue: in favor of the DREAM Act, pro-choice, and in support of the ACA and expanding Medicaid. He is in radical opposition to Cruz’ complete commitment to the destructive Trump-Republican agenda.

O’Rourke is neck and neck Cruz in the polls – and he gives us a solid shot of breaking the Republican majority in the Senate. But Texas historically claims some of the lowest midterm voter turnout in the nation due to gerrymandering and repressive voting laws.

We’re going to need every single Texas Democrat showing up to the polls on November 6 to win this seat — and Flippable is helping to get out the vote with Thursday Textbanks for Texas every Thursday, today through November 1.

Sign up to send text messages to Texas Democrats from the comfort of your home (and without having to talk to anyone!), urging voters in the Lonestar State to show up to the polls on November 6!

Time for some real talk. ‘Just voting’ is no longer good enough if we’re going to defeat Trump’s agenda. We’re facing a revved up Republican base, eager to keep their xenophobic and isolationist United States moving in the same direction it’s been the past two years. And they are bolstered by some of the worst gerrymandering and voter restriction laws our country has seen in recent years.

But we’re part of the #BlueWave, which has been flipping GOP seats across the country — and which exists because of people like you who are willing and ready to do a little bit more than “just vote.” The Blue Wave is making calls, sending texts, knocking on doors, and marching the streets to face and defeat the ugliness.

Thanks for doing your part. And this is the next step.

Sign up for a Thursday Textbank shift TODAY through November 1 to win Beto O’Rourke a Senate seat in Texas. Send Texas Democrats the encouragement they need to show up to vote on November 6!
