We call for the Permanent Platform Committee during the 2024 Texas Democratic Convention to add the following, or equivalent, language to the TDP 2024 Platform under the “Reproductive Freedom and Personal Choice” section:
Our water, air, and soil must be protected. As FDR said, "a nation that destroys its soil destroys itself." The Democratic Party needs to support any legislation that works toward ending the climate crisis -- from boosting renewable energy; removing or otherwise limiting pollution and greenhouse gases; protecting water, soil, and air; and any other necessary policy that will protect Americans from the climate crisis.
Gov Abbott & his gaggle of Radical Republicans want to defund our public schools so they can send kickbacks to their billionaire mega-donors. Sign this petition to stop them from defunding our public schools! Click here to help us recruit other signers.
Education is the foundation of opportunity for all. But instead of supporting our schools, Radical Republicans seek to defund our public schools. School Vouchers are a ploy to give kickbacks to Abbott's campaign donors and the Greedy Few. We must not defund our public schools, rather we must fully fund and empower them to provide the best education to all Texas children.
