Whew, time really does fly! Early voting is officially in full swing here in Texas, meaning folks from corner to corner of our state are already casting their ballots for what might be the most consequential elections of our lifetime. With just eight days until the Democratic primary, I’m reminded of how critical this moment is, not just for us or North Texans, but for the entire state. That’s why today, I’m going to ask you to help me out with a donation to my campaign to make sure my ads stay on the air all the way through next Tuesday’s primary. As you probably know already, I started out running for Texas’ U.S. Senate seat. The campaign we built for that race was nothing short of extraordinary. We had the energy. We had the momentum. And while the path ahead was challenging, I was all in and ready to fight to the very end. But this past December, it became clear that Texas’ Senate race was headed for a bruising, costly Democratic primary – one that would make us collectively weaker in the fight against the MAGA Republicans in control of our state right now. I thought long and hard about what that would look like and the impact it would have on Texans. I looked back on all the people I met traveling across the state: folks in union halls, churches, barbershops, and small businesses. And I paused on the honest conversations I had with those hardworking folks, the struggles they shared, and the trust they placed in me. It was those people – people like you – who made me realize that I needed to go in a different direction. That’s when I made the tough decision to step back from Texas’ U.S. Senate race and instead run to represent TX-33. I grew up in this district. I know what it’s like to work hard and make a living here because I saw my mom do it. She was a teacher and a single mom who often worked two jobs to make ends meet. She put me through public school here. I spent my days at the local YMCA. And it was the mentors and coaches that I met along the way who gave me the support I needed to become the man I am today. Today, I’m still here in North Texas with my wife, Aly, and our two boys. This is our home. And I’m ready to fight like hell for it. But right now, right as folks are starting to cast their ballots, my primary opponent is dishing out baseless attacks left and right in an effort to undermine the work I’ve put into this campaign and this state. You know how hard we’ve fought to build this movement into what it is today. And I hope that as we barrel closer to our primary, you’ll help me defend it.
