Promoting Democracy
Supporting Pro-Democracy Activists
Serving Underrepresented &
Marginalized Voters in Texas
The idea that everyone’s vote should carry equal weight, and that everyone should have an equal opportunity to vote, are foundational values of the pro-democracy movement. The groups listed below work to bring these values to life. This means not only equal voting power in determining the outcome of elections, but it also means more representation in the legislatures that make our laws, set our budgets, and determine our priorities.
