We have a major test of our strength coming up at the end of the year — in the form of our first-ever public reporting deadline with the Texas Election Commission. Soon, our grassroots fundraising numbers will be public for all to see, and we need to show up strong if we want to keep our momentum going.
The good news is, our team of grassroots supporters is growing bigger by the day — but on the flip side, since our campaign is people-powered, we're expecting fundraising to slow down over the holiday weekend.
We wouldn't have it any other way. But if you're in a place to do so, today is a great day to chip in $3 or more to help us weather the holiday slowdown and prepare for our campaign's biggest fundraising deadline to date.
The bottom line is this: the more resources we have, the more Texans we can reach, listen to and learn from, and authentically inspire to join our team.
Let me share an example of how we're doing that work right now. Through events, digital outreach, local headlines, and more, Beto has been using his platform to hold Greg Abbott accountable for the fact that if you live in a rural community in Texas, you may soon have to pay over $100 more on your phone and internet bills — all because Abbott vetoed rural network support.
State leaders should be investing in our rural communities, not turning their backs on them. We're making sure people understand why their bills are getting bigger, and how Beto would do things dramatically differently — by investing in rural broadband, expanding Medicaid and improving rural health care, and fully funding our schools and paying teachers their true value.
There is so much on the line in this election, and we're going to spend every day between now and next November demonstrating the difference between Beto's bold, inclusive vision for Texas and Greg Abbott's small, mean-spirited one.
Thank you so much for being on this team,
Nick Rathod
Campaign Manager, Beto for Texas
