With all due respect, I'm not assuming anything. Again, I don't work for the campaign, but I continue to see a focus on a handful of ppl being blocked on Twitter. It seems like a bizarre issue to primarily focus on when ppl need better income, healthcare, cheaper college etc 1/

There are also ppl I've spoken to who said you have been a great contributor to the Democratic party in TX-31 and will continue to be. I just think there are better ways to work this out than on Twitter. I hope you understand that perspective. 2/

I wish there were other ways to work this out. But no one is listening. She is not listening. We have tried reaching out. There have been two newspaper articles about it. Still nothing. Voters in #TX31 have had 20 years of a rep who refuses to engage with constituents. 1/

I helped organize rallies and meetings over the past 4 years to highlight the unresponsiveness of our current rep. Democrats railed against that behavior. Now that it is a Dem doing the same thing, crickets. These constituents deserve a voice. 2/

They have no platform to use to get her attention; I do. And still, many make excuses. They say we are petty. That we have harassed her. We have not. Many were blocked before interacting with her at all. Young voters, new to politics.

Community activists who need access to their rep so they can work with her on their causes, blocked for asking her opinion on suicide issues, mental health issues, Gun issues. Independents looking for a Democrat they can support, blocked before even asking a question. 4/

Black women who firm the core of the local Dem party: blocked. We are trying to get this fixed because she cannot win this without these voters. But it’s incredibly disheartening to have other Democrats not even care about representation. 5/

That is an extremely unfair characterization IMO. To be fair, I don't see any of Donna's other primary competitors making these assertions.
