July 2021 meeting agenda

All on the Line is fighting hyper partisan gerrymandering in Texas on three fronts—in the courts, in the Texas Legislature, and through civic engagement. We are the third part, the people power! 

This month, Baffour Tontoh will tell us how we can help map our community, and use our voices to testify for fair districts. Gerrymandering is silencing communities. If our votes didn’t matter, Republicans wouldn’t try so hard to suppress them.

Candidates running for office are encouraged to attend and introduce themselves and their priorities.

It’s been a very long time. We can’t wait to see your lovely faces! (Yay, vaccines and Democratic administrations!) 

Thursday, July 22
7:00 pm meeting
6:30 pm  to eat and visit 

Los Jimadores Tex-Mex Tequila Factory 
3314 Harwood Road, Bedford, 76021

There’s a special election happening in Bedford, and while there are unfortunately no Democrats running, there is a best choice among the Republicans. Rich Steves appears to be a moderate R while his opponents are extremists.

Voting information from the City of Bedford is available here.

After outperforming the top of the Democratic ticket in 2/3 of Texas’ counties, Mike Collier continues to serve as a financial watchdog on the Texas Legislature. He’s considering running again to be our next Lt. Governor, and he wants your support.

Talk to Mike directly this month.

It’s time to give Dan Patrick the boot!
