 | | | | In the recent Texas primary elections, Democrats set a turnout record: More than 2.3 million Texans showed up to vote. | ![NPR]() | | For years, people have asked the same question about our state: Is Texas finally ready to change? | | But here's the truth from someone who has spent his life working in refineries, union halls, and communities across this state: Texas has always had the people. What we've been missing is leadership that actually fights for them. | | Please, split a donation between my campaign and Colin Allred's right now to help elect the leadership that Texas needs. | | If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your split donation between Marcos Vélez and Colin Allred will go through immediately: | | I'm Marcos Vélez. I didn't grow up around politicians. I was raised in Houston by a single mom who worked back-breaking jobs to keep our family afloat. |  | | As a teenager, I learned the value of work in my grandfather's diesel shop. After high school, I went straight into the refineries — pulling wrenches, working nights, and doing the kind of work that keeps Texas running. | | Later, I joined the United Steelworkers and spent more than a decade bargaining with massive corporations for safer workplaces, fair pay, and better benefits for working people. | | That fight is why I'm running for Lieutenant Governor. Because the truth is that the people running Texas aren't fighting for the folks working double shifts, running small businesses, or trying to retire with dignity. | | And the turnout we just saw tells me something important: Texans are ready for a government that finally puts working families first. | | But if we're going to build that movement, it's going to take resources — not from corporate PACs, but from people who believe Texas can do better. So I'm asking: Can you split a donation between me and Colin Allred to help power this campaign for Lieutenant Governor? | | If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your split donation between Marcos Vélez and Colin Allred will go through immediately: | | Thank you, | | Marcos | | | | | | |
