On Sunday, I went to Juarez to hear from asylum seekers who have been abandoned by our country. We have a clear choice before us — either we accept this is who we are or we change it. I’m in this fight to change it. Join me and RT to spread the word.

Beto is getting loud cheers and huge applause in Nashville as he calls for an end on the prohibition of weed and expungement of all marijuana charges. The substance is still very much illegal in Tennessee, where #tnleg deferred taking up medical cannabis bills this year.

Just saw @BetoORourke at his first event in Nashville! He had a really unifying message & talked of how living in a red state doesn’t mean you should count yourself — or your republican neighbors — out.

Nashville is feeling @BetoORourke this afternoon. It’s the loudest room I’ve been in for a political candidate in Tennessee—ever.
It felt like a University of Tennessee football game in here.

Big congratulations to the @USWNT

We have a maternal mortality crisis in this country that is 3x as deadly for women of color. We must achieve universal health care, fully invest in family planning clinics, and follow the lead of women who are confronting this crisis daily.
Incredibly grateful to have the opportunity to be at #EssenceFest this evening. Black women are the heart and soul of the Democratic Party. We witnessed that in Texas. We've seen it across America. And this country is becoming a more perfect union because of it.

At #EssenceFest2019, @BetoORourke says “African American women are the heart and soul of the Democratic Party”

Most of the candidates here at Essence Fest have rattled off the same statistics specific to black women when it comes to pay/wealth gap and maternal mortality. @BetoORourke is the first to highlight the higher rates of suspension/discipline for black students. Crowd applauds
Our climate plan mobilizes $5 trillion—spurred by the largest investment towards fighting climate change in history. It also defends communities that are on the front lines, increasing by ten-fold the spending on pre-disaster mitigation grants. Full plan:
The greatest threat we face is climate change and we can’t fight it without also fighting for climate justice. Thanks to the members of Thrive New Orleans and the environmental champions who joined us for a discussion on how we meet this challenge with everything we've got.
The solutions to fighting climate change are coming from the communities most impacted by it. That's why we were in the ninth ward of New Orleans this afternoon to listen, learn, and continue adding more voices and perspectives to our historic climate plan.
