My family is from Brownsville. I spent summers here as a kid. The support of this community means the world to me, and together we are going to elect a Senator who fights for all of us.

Aly and I are praying for the loved ones of Deputy Constable Maher Husseini, who was shot and killed as he was driving into work in Houston. I’m thankful to law enforcement for apprehending the suspect. This is a heartbreaking tragedy for Harris County. khou.com/article/news/c…

I’m a fourth generation Texan. My family is from Brownsville, I grew up in Dallas, and I went to Baylor. I know who we are as Texans, and I know that there’s more that unites us than divides us. This November, we will reject Ted Cruz’s divisive, self-serving politics.

Making sure our veterans get the care they earned close to home will always be a priority for me. I worked with Veronica Escobar and folks in both parties to pass legislation to expand VA facilities, including in El Paso. So excited to see this progress! elpasotimes.com/picture-galler…

Every Texan deserves the ability to retire with dignity. It was great to hear from retirees in Harlingen about the importance of earned benefits like Social Security and Medicare. In the Senate, I will fight to protect these critical programs.

The first day of school was only a few weeks ago, but another community has been shattered by gun violence. My heart goes out to the students, staff & loved ones of those lost at Apalachee HS in Georgia. We must take action to end this senseless violence. apnews.com/article/georgi…

Hearing the amazing stories of small business owners like Cory of Cory’s Cakes are one of my favorite parts about being on the campaign trail. In the Senate, I’ll work to make sure Texas small businesses have the resources they need to thrive.

Big Gretch is all in for Allred! I’m honored to receive the endorsement of Gretchen Whitmer’s Fight Like Hell PAC in this race. We deserve a Senator who will have all Texans’ backs and fight for our freedoms. That will be my priority on day one.

If he’s re-elected, Ted Cruz will cut Social Security, privatize Medicare and raise the retirement age. Not on my watch. Texas seniors can’t afford six more years of him in the Senate and that’s why we are showing him the door in November. riograndeguardian.com/allred-ted-cru…

Every Texan deserves access to affordable, quality health care, no matter where they live. Today I toured DHR Health in Edinburg to learn more about their work to provide Texans in the Rio Grande Valley with the care they need.

Young Texans know what’s at stake in this election, from protecting our democracy to eliminating gun violence to the climate crisis. Proud to work alongside these awesome University of Houston student leaders to create the future we want for our state.

Small businesses boost our local economies and create good paying jobs for Texans. In the Senate, I want to make sure I can be a partner to small business owners, which is why I brought leaders together in Sugar Land to talk about the issues facing them and how I can help.
