President Biden and the US Senate must follow the lead of these Texas Democrats who are doing whatever it takes, regardless of the cost, to win this fight for the soul of our democracy. — PolitiTweet.org

Unlike the filibuster in the US Senate, the filibuster rules in the Texas Senate will require Senator Alvarado to hold the floor—standing and speaking constantly—without being allowed to eat, drink, or use the restroom. We’re with you, Carol! — PolitiTweet.org

Tomorrow's census data release will be the starting gun for redistricting (or as it's known in Texas, gerrymandering). Join me for a conversation with the @BrennanCenter's Michael Li as we discuss how to stop those in power from choosing their own voters. https://t.co/qGckpmj7cc — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

Encouraged to see all Senate Democrats voting this morning to move forward on democracy legislation. Not surprised to see McConnell and GOP stop it (for now). It's now as clear as can be: we can have the filibuster or democracy, but we can't have both. https://t.co/XDLBFePc0b — PolitiTweet.org

I’m grateful to you, @JudgeClayJ, the Austin and Dallas school boards and others who are demonstrating true leadership in the midst of a public health crisis. THANK YOU. — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

As the parents of children in El Paso public schools, Amy and I hope that our area school districts will follow the lead set by Dallas and Austin. As Texans, we hope our state government will come to the same conclusion. — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you for standing up for Texas kids and especially medically complex children! — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

I am grateful to the Texas House Democrats who continue to fight for the voting rights of all Texans. In a democracy, there is nothing more important. Don’t give up the fight. — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

The Texas Senate just advanced its latest voter suppression bill. Texans: Please keep up the pressure. - Call your state senator: https://t.co/f3hxH7agR1 - And then call President Biden. Urge him to make passing the For the People Act his #1 priority: https://t.co/rmjmSxB93w — PolitiTweet.org

RT @AdamSerwer: I think Texas made a mistake in allowing the novel coronavirus to write its protocols for public schools. — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

I’m inspired by all the Texans doing what they can, with what they have, where they are, to save the right to vote. Let’s keep pushing until those in DC with the power to pass voting rights legislation are moved to move on it! https://t.co/Ts5lkVFQqu — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

While it’s up to all of us to do all we can to save our democracy, there’s one person who is indispensable to this fight. https://t.co/ZPzXqxUXNF — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

To meet this moment, President Biden must make voting rights his #1 priority. If he uses the full power of his office to reform the filibuster and pass the For the People Act, he will stand alongside Johnson as a champion and savior of American democracy. https://t.co/VWLxYTXPcn — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

Here in Texas, Governor Abbott just called a second special session yesterday to again try to force through voter suppression legislation that would effectively disenfranchise tens of thousands of Texans. We are running out of time. We need Congress and President Biden to act. — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

Today, as we face a weakened Voting Rights Act, and as state legislatures across the country erect new barriers to the ballot box, it’s going to take another historic movement and strong leadership from President Biden to pass new federal voting rights legislation. — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

56 years ago today, President Johnson signed the 1965 Voting Rights Act into law. It happened because people protested, marched & put their lives on the line to engage the conscience of the nation — and because LBJ used the full force of his office to ensure the law would pass. https://t.co/NMMUTpcMty — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

And we must fight like hell to preserve voting rights in Texas. It’s the only way to ensure we can hold corrupt officials accountable and elect leaders who prioritize people over profit. — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

We must reform state campaign finance laws to address this type of corruption. - Limit the amount that groups and individuals can donate to state office candidates. - Strengthen transparency of campaign finance reports to make it easier for Texans to hold power to account. — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

THE ABBOTT TAX We now know Abbott took $4.6 million from energy leaders after letting them off the hook for failures during the winter storm. Meanwhile Texans face utility bill increases of up to 15% for the next 10 YEARS to pay for the grid crisis that his corruption created. — PolitiTweet.org

Beto O'Rourke @BetoORourke

Time is running out to secure voting rights in America. Excited to join one of the leaders of this fight — @Tiffany_Muller of @StopBigMoney & @LetAmericaVote — for a conversation about what we can do before it’s too late. Tune in here at 1pm CT / 2pm ET: https://t.co/RjMjsXdHhf — PolitiTweet.org

President Biden, please use the full power of your office to reform the filibuster and pass voting rights legislation. We are running out of time to save our democracy. https://t.co/jTnJyjGlez https://t.co/9yWpQjxAXb — PolitiTweet.org
