Turn Texas Blue 2026!

Texas Is Entering Third Decade of Republican Control
In 2002, the trifecta flipped, and Texas has been red ever since.

And what has the Republican regime done for us? Well, according to a report from U.S. News, not much to write home about...
#45 in access to healthcare.
#44 in air and water quality.
#43 in equality.
#43 in economic opportunity.
#38 in public safety.

Our current Representatives have proven that they aren't interested in representing real-life Texans - they'd rather represent their campaign donors, billionaire buddies, and oil tycoons.

It's time to change that.

2026 is coming and it's time to get reps elected who are interested in repping US.

Check back often for updates as candidates announce their running!
