As a result of the incredible voter turnout in 2020, states like Texas have passed bills to make it harder for people to vote, especially voters of color. Why? Because they are afraid of what happens when everyone has the freedom to make their voices heard.
On February 21 at 8 pm ET, join the Center for Common Ground and Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett to hear more about the state of voting in Texas today, what we can expect for the 2024 elections, and how YOU can help get out the vote for voters of color in Texas.
Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett, TX-30, has purposefully made every decision with one goal in mind: protecting the civil liberties of those in underrepresented communities. And so far, she has done just that. As the youngest Black lawmaker in the Texas House of Representatives, she led the 2021 Texas House Quorum Break, which brought attention to the draconian and restrictive voting measures being proposed in the legislature. Now a member of Congress, Rep. Crockett serves as the Freshman Leadership Representative, where she fights to expand access to healthcare, voting rights, economic opportunity, and dignity for all.
