Gun violence is the biggest threat to young Texans, not drag queens. TX Republicans should be addressing modern issues that impact our daily lives – not caving into bogus culture wars. #txlege Together, we can defeat hateful, anti-LGBTQ+ bills: txdem.co/Queens

Nashville: we grieve with you during this incomprehensible tragedy. Like in the #txlege, Tennessee's legislature spent more time restricting drag shows than life-saving gun reform. Our children will remain a target until Republicans in power get their priorities straight.
