socialistexan: fox-metro: blackqueerblog: I don’t even live in Texas but honestly we need politicians like Beto What’s so great about Beto? Doesn’t take any PAC money or big donor money period. Left or right. Won’t be beholden to big money interests. Already pledged to support Bernie’s Medicare for All bill should he win Legalization of Marijuana, expunging records of nonviolent drug offenders. He wouldn’t have voted for Kavanaugh, and he would have voted for the Violence Against Women reauthorization. Expanding of LGBTQ rights. Public works projects like extending broadband access to rural areas and funding for the rail project between Dallas-SA-Austin-Houston. Bringing back and protecting the voting rights act. Increasing money for the VA. Finding healthy solutions to immigration and the boarder, just like his home town El Paso a boarder town that’s one of the safest cities in the country Prison reform, ending for profit prisons. I don’t live in Texas, or even in America, but this Beto guy is someone I would vote for if I lived in Texas. -- source link
