Our Vision: Reclaiming Houston for the working class
Houston has the potential to become a progressive powerhouse where every working Texan can thrive. Right now, the city’s political landscape is dominated by an establishment that has lost touch with the working class. Too many Democratic leaders cater to corporate donors, prioritize billionaire interests, and ignore the struggles of everyday Texans.
In the 2020 Democratic primary, 40%+ of Harris County voters chose progressive candidates like Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren, proving there’s a powerful base ready for bold, transformative policies. Yet, instead of activating this energy, the establishment has doubled down on outdated strategies and failed leadership, leaving working people behind.
Our mission is clear: win elections, build working-class power, and steer the Democratic Party back toward the values of opportunity and justice for working class Texans.
By organizing renters, empowering grassroots leaders, and mobilizing voters, we aim to reconnect with the Texas working class and create a movement that doesn’t just talk about change but delivers it.
Our Vision for Houston and Texas
We believe in a future where every Texan has the opportunity to succeed—regardless of their ZIP code, income, or background. That means a Texas where:
-
Billionaires and the wealthy elite pay their fair share and stop controlling our politics.
-
Every Texan has access to affordable, high-quality essentials, including:
-
Childcare and pre-K
-
Education
-
Healthcare
-
Housing
-
Power
-
Post-secondary education and apprenticeships
-
Jobs that pay fair wages
-
Affordable food
-
Reliable transportation
-
-
Every Texan enjoys equal rights and opportunity.
-
America’s foreign policy benefits working-class Americans, not just corporations and defense contractors.
Winning Power for the People
To achieve this vision, we’re building a movement grounded in the struggles and aspirations of working people. Our strategy is simple but bold:
-
Reconnect with the Working Class: We’re organizing renters, empowering apartment captains, and recruiting precinct chairs who understand the needs of their communities.
-
Challenge the Status Quo: We’re holding establishment politicians accountable and supporting candidates who fight for working people—not just the wealthy elite.
-
Win Elections: By engaging the voters the establishment ignores, we can flip seats, change policies, and show that progressive politics wins in Texas.
-
Deliver Real Change: From affordable childcare to fair wages, our focus isn’t just on promises—it’s on delivering results for every single Texan.
The status quo isn’t working. It’s time to build a Texas where working families, not billionaires, come first.
Join us in creating a movement that fights for a better future—one that ensures every Texan has the opportunity to prosper and thrive.
