The Rabble | Texas Politics for the Unruly Mob

It's Day 17 of The Rabble podcast's Daily Democracy Challenge, where we count down 46 days of impactful-yet-achievable action items to flip Texas and elect our 46th president.

Only 29 more days until the election and 8 more days until early voting!

TODAY'S ACTION:

LAST DAY to register to vote in Texas! Wherever you are in Texas, you can fill out this form, print it and drop it off at your county clerk's office today to be sure you can vote in this election: https://vrapp.sos.state.tx.us/index.asp
Tonight! Join us online to watch the DIGITAL PREMIERE of the documentary we're in! It's called THE PUSHBACK and it's super inspiring (99% because of everyone else in the film, only 1% because of us, haha). Even Mark Ruffalo tweeted about it telling his 6.9 million followers to watch it... whuuuuut! Also, the soundtrack is incredible and was written and performed by Johnny Cash's grandson, Joseph Cash. So cool.
The premiere is 10/5 at 5pm CT and kicks off with a discussion between Beto O'Rourke and Rep. Veronica Escobar moderated by the founding president of Voto Latino. CAN'T WAIT!

Also, sign up for tomorrow's very easy action, which is watching the WORLD PREMIERE of the movie we're in! It's called THE PUSHBACK and it's super inspiring and mostly features people way more amazing than us, like Rep. Veronica Escobar and Austin's only current Black city councilmember, Natasha Harper-Madison. It puts the current progressive movement in Texas in a historical social justice context and will hit you right in the feels. The premiere is 10/5 at 5pm CT and kicks off with a discussion between Beto O'Rourke and Rep. Veronica Escobar moderated by the founding president of Voto Latino. CAN'T WAIT!
