Thank you! As a native Texan, I hear you and totally agree! My brother still living there has been a life-long Democrat in the trenches for years. And I certainly contribute as much as I can to up and coming candidates.

Good for you. I’ve been following Colin Allred (?sp) and hope he can get Ted Cruz out of the Senate. Having lived in San Antonio in the early 1960’s (my congressman was Henry B. Gonzales), I am sickened by the takeover by Republicans who have shown themselves to be basically killers.
Yes, Virginia, I have a friend I recently reconnected with in Texas. I am afraid she is a MAGA but I am getting up my courage to ask her about some of these things.
Please consider supporting Roland Gutierrez. Any Democrat is better than Ted Cruz, but that's a VERY low bar. Mr Gutierrez has several advantages over Colin Allred, in particular his stated policies for Texans.
But then, Colin actually signed onto that nasty "rebuke" of President Biden that the Magats in Congress formulated about border and immigration. That's where he lost me and I moved my campaign dollars from Allred to Gutierrez.
Interesting comment, Norma. Please let us all know about your conversations with your MAGA friend. I live in Arizona, have severalMAGA friends and so far have not come up with a strategy to open a conversation without inviting vitriol. Listening…
D.Allen: Do you understand why? Are they not paying attention? Are they terrified of immigrants? Do they hate Hispanics and believe Republican propaganda? When I think of Texas textbooks, realize I may have hit it with the last guess.

I have given money to Colin and been to a couple of meet and greet. A good man whose legal specialty is voter rights.
I have sent money to Colin
Good for you. You might think about what else you can do if you have time. It’s going to take time for all who can give it to get Texas purple.

Bravo to you! Tough convos -- thank you.
Yes, I just sent money to Colin again. That's much easier.

Good luck with that! Seriously, most won’t give an inch, even to get rid of the goP in Tx.
