Jason, last fall, Ken Paxton launched a baseless investigation into Powered by People and threatened to jail me.

But his lawsuit was never really about the law. It was about trying to scare us out of organizing, out of speaking up, out of doing the work it takes to build power in Texas.

We’re now back in court making sure that we present the facts and restore freedom of speech in Texas. Paxton, on the other hand, is getting called out by judges for what they’ve described as “unprofessional conduct.” I’m grateful for the progress we’ve made, but must also acknowledge the real cost to standing up to his abuse of power.

We’ve now spent more than $500,000 in legal fees fighting Paxton’s frivolous lawsuits.

Every dollar we’re forced to spend fighting him in court is a dollar we can’t put into the work that actually gets people registered and turned out to vote.

That’s the point of Paxton's attacks. To drain us, slow us down, and make the relational organizing work we do that much harder.

We recently exhausted the initial retainer we set aside to defend ourselves. If we’re going to beat him in court and keep organizing across Texas, we need your help.

If you’re able, split a donation between the Voter Protection Project and Powered by People today to help us continue the work it will take to win in Texas this November.

The Voter Protection Project is on an important mission: To end partisan gerrymandering and voter suppression by electing candidates at the state and federal levels that are forceful advocates for voting rights. Our enfranchisement agenda includes working to ensure that every state has automatic voter registration and online voter registration, convenient early voting, and independent redistricting commissions to ensure politicians are not able to draw their own maps.

Thank you for standing with me.

As the first out LGBTQ+ State Senator in Michigan, I’m hitting the campaign trail hard this Pride Month to make the case to voters that I am going to stand up to Republican attacks in Washington.
 

Huge news! 📢

This milestone is only possible thanks to our grassroots supporters and volunteers.
 

Grateful to you

I’m ready to continue the work beside you and ensure we can bring real change to Florida this November.
