π’ Texas letter carriers are fighting like hell for a fair contract!
Our entire labor movement stands with them to deliver one, unified message to USPS: First-class service deserves first-class pay! #FightLikeHell #UnionStrong
It is always great to meet people whose work you have followed and respected. Thank you to The Audacity To Care for taking the time to connect. We met at Dutch Bros in solidarity with Starbucks Workers United as they fight for a fair contract. Standing with them. youtu.be/urOuvMw9fxM?...
BREAKING: Taylor Rehmet was just sworn in as the first rank-and-file union member to serve in the Texas Senate.
Senator Rehmet is a beacon of hope not just for Texas, but for every union member and worker in the state. This is a huge win for Texas workers!

Featuring @marcosisaiasvelez.bsky.social, @joseloya.bsky.social, @rableforwesttexas.bsky.social, & other union-first candidates!
Proud to be endorsed by the Stonewall Democrats of El Paso. This campaign is about dignity, opportunity, equality, and real representation for working people in every corner of Texas, not business as usual politics that have left too many people behind.
Thank you, Waco, for an incredible Saturday. This campaign is people powered and rooted in a simple belief Texas should work for the people who work for a living.
Working people know what is broken in this system, and we are the best ones to fix it.
Letβs get to work.

Proud to be endorsed by Texas Aggie Democrats as I run for Lieutenant Governor of Texas. Letβs build a state that works for all.
Honored to earn this endorsement and continue building a campaign grounded in service, fairness,accountability and a Texas that works for all Texans. #LetsGetToWork #Velez
Endorsements tell voters who a candidate stands with and who they will fight for. I am proud to be supported by working people, not political insiders. SEIU represents people who show up every day, do the work, and ask only for dignity and fairness. Texans deserve leadership that respects that.
Proud to have the endorsement of Indivisible Waco. This campaign is about dignity, democracy, and putting working people first. Organized people will always beat organized money.
When working people elect politicians who answer to corporate money, itβs not representation. Itβs outsourcing your future to the people who profit from your loss. #workersoverbillionaires #Velezfortexas
Thank you Stonewall San Antonio for your endorsement! Honored to have yalls support, and I'm committed to showing solidarity through actions not just words.
I sat down with The Dive hosted by a Democrat and a Republican for an honest conversation about unions, healthcare, wages, AI, water rights, and why so many working Texans feel politically abandoned.

Public school teachers shape the life of every American. Itβs time we treated their profession with the respect it earns every day.
