We are heading to Texas!

Next up on the bus tour: Texas! [Black Voters Matter logo]( Friend, Next up on the bus tour: Texas! Just a couple weeks ago we kicked off our new fall GOTV campaign and bus tour, “We Won’t Black Down.” So far, we have been able to connect with countless Black voters across many states. From HBCU students in Florida and Georgia to residents and more, we are mobilizing Black voters to vote in the upcoming midterm elections, and we are just getting started! This week, we are headed to Texas to connect with HBCU students and communities.
