Gina up three against Abbott in latest NYT/Siena poll. She keeps rising. How much more evidence of @GinaHinojosaTX strength in Texas will @AndyBeshearKY and the @DemGovs have to see before they support her in a real way? She can win!

God already built a wall through Big Bend — it's called the Chisos Mountains.
We don't need to give billions of our tax dollars to out of state vendors.
We don't need to desecrate this sacred land.
We don't need this useless, disgraceful, corrupt Big Bend border wall.

Ken Paxton’s billionaire handlers won’t let him answer questions in public. It’s why he hasn’t debated in over a decade.
But I want him to prove me wrong.
I’m challenging Ken Paxton to three televised debates.

Jammed-packed house at the Stand for Humanity rally hosted by @Castro4Congress.
The brutal tactics from ICE have created a culture of fear and distrust that cannot continue. The American people hold the power to change what’s happening but only if we VOTE.
Vote 3/3 and 11/3!
