Showdown in Texas Senate Committee

We're in the middle of a showdown in Texas. Here's what you can do to help.


Here's the situation in the Lone Star State:

Thanks to your calls and emails, the Senate State Affairs Committee heard testimony for the Convention of States application – HJR 77 – yesterday, May 25th. Our entire team did a fantastic job, and you can watch Texas State Director Tamara Colbert's impassioned testimony in the video below:

HJR 77 did not get a vote in that particular hearing, but we're still fighting. If you live in Texas, please take a moment to call the members of the committee and ask them to bring HJR 77 to a vote as soon as possible.

==== Here is a script: ====

“I AM CALLING IN SUPPORT OF HJR 77. I AM ASKING SENATOR _________ TO SUPPORT THIS BILL BY VOTING IN FAVOR OF HJR 77 AND GETTING IT OUT OF COMMITTEE FOR A FLOOR VOTE.”
