Chip in today to elect Dem govs across the country >>
Democratic governors are leading the fight against Donald Trump and his administration – and they need your help. Trump and his allies have hundreds of millions of dollars to attack our candidates, and we have to make sure we’ve got the resources to fight back. With 36 races on the map this November, 80% of Americans will cast their vote for their next governor. We need to invest NOW to expand our map, win in battleground states, protect our blue firewall of Dem govs, and flip critical states from red to blue. Can Dem govs count on you to chip in right now?
DGA Statement on the Primary Elections in Texas
Today, Democratic Governors Association Executive Director Elisabeth Pearson released the following statement on the nominations of Lupe Valdez and Gov. Greg Abbott for governor in Texas:
“Congratulations to Lupe Valdez on becoming the Democratic nominee for governor in Texas,” said Pearson. “An Army veteran and Dallas County Sheriff, Lupe has been serving her community and country with distinction for years. As governor, she will protect women’s access to health care, rebuild the state’s infrastructure, and make sure everyone has a fair shot to get ahead. Governor Abbott has pushed a divisive agenda that threatens the state’s business community. Lupe Valdez will lead Texas in a new direction and deliver real results for Texas families.”
