From a verified voter in Bastrop, TXOver 300,000 people, who are being starved to death, are frantically fleeing Rafah with no where safe to go.

From a verified voter in Mason, TXUNWORTHY BEHAVIOUR
Greetings. I am a voting constituent in rural west Texas. A short note on the persistent headlines we keep reading. If a candidate for ANY political office is unable to commit to the results of an election, they should be barred from seeking office. This is the worst form of political pandering,
From a verified voter in Mason, TXIT’S NOT HIS TO SELL
Greetings. I am a voting constituent in rural west Texas. Nothing like waking up to read that DJT is busily, blatantly selling the office of the president if he actually wins come November. Lobbying a gathering of oil and gas executives to chip in to get him re-elected and he will give them whateve
From a verified voter in Austin, TXConditioning military aid enables Israeli forces' abuses in Palestine.
Blinken's decision to continue military aid to Israeli units involved in credible reports of serious human rights violations against Palestinians enables further atrocities with impunity. The meager punishments, such as community service for killing an unarmed Palestinian, undermine the Leahy Laws'

From a verified voter in Pflugerville, TXURGENT: Immediate Action Needed to Halt Ground Invasion in Rafah

From a verified voter in Pflugerville, TXISRAEL CLOSES RAFAH CROSSING - ACT NOW
