Texas Democratic Party launches expansion plan aimed at ending decades-long statewide losing streak

Analysts say it will take years for the plan to pay dividends.

Happy #DisabilityPrideMonth! This July, we celebrate the voices of #Texans with #disabilities, whether physical, psychiatric, or invisible.

Folks with disabilities make Texas stronger – and we are committed to defending their rights and fighting for a more accessible, just #Texas.
