IMPORTANT! Texans for Equality Campaign
The Texas Stonewall Democratic Caucus (Texas Stonewall Democrats) has officially launched a campaign designed to challenge every Stonewall member in the State of Texas and our allies who support Equality to contribute to a special campaign that will raise monies for both Wendy Davis and Leticia Van de Putte.
These two women will lead our State Ticket in November as the candidates for Governor and Lt. Governor. We have intentionally designed the campaign so that everyone can participate and that effort starts NOW !
Dallas is hosting the Texas Democratic Party Convention on June 27th and 28th!
We are asking each and every Stonewall member to make a contribution to
this drive by either making 4 small monthly contributions of at least $ 25 OR,
if you prefer, just a single contribution of at least $ 100 between now and the time that the Convention rolls around in late June.
Click on the image below or go directly to our Act Blue Contribution Page !
All monies raised in our TEXANS FOR EQUALITY campaign will be distributed
equally between the campaigns for Wendy Davis and Leticia Van de Putte.
All of us recognize that Turning Texas Blue is an uphill battle and won't be easy - but we also recognize that our candidates need to raise the funds necessary to get their message out to voters this Summer and Fall !
Details on this campaign will be in our award-winning Stonewall Advocate Newsletter
and President Jay Narey will be speaking more on this at our March meeting.
