I was in Texas yesterday

 

Yesterday in Houston, I pledged that at the end of my first term as president we'll close the teacher pay gap with the largest federal investment in teacher salaries in American history.

It was an important and special day for our campaign, and I wanted to send you some photos and share stories from the campaign trail:

On Friday night, I spoke with fired-up Democrats in Tarrant County to talk about the role they will play in electing our next president.

On Saturday morning, we dropped in for a bite at the Breakfast Klub -- a Houston classic that always has a line out the door. There, I had the privilege of meeting the inspiring group of history-making Black women judges who were elected last November.

From there, we headed to Texas Southern University, where nearly 2,500 Texans joined us to speak truth about the big challenges we face as a country.

It was then that I announced, as president I plan to make the largest federal investment in our teachers in American history.

For too long, we have been a country that pretends to care about public education but doesn't pay our teachers what they deserve. Too many of our educators are working two or three jobs just to make ends meet.

That can -- and will -- change.

Texas is full of opportunity. In our campaign, we will compete everywhere, for every vote. That's how we grow our party and win.

Thank you, as always, for everything you have done and will continue to do to power our campaign. I am so grateful for your support.

For The People,

— Kamala
