University Democrats

The power of the UDems Endorsement

Congrats to @poojaintexas.bsky.social for her victory yesterday!

Pooja has shown us how to stand up to hate, while still maintaining a hopeful attitude. She will be a true fighter and champion for progressive values in the TX House.

Congrats to former UDems President, @jamestalarico.bsky.social, on winning the TX Senate Primary. Your campaign of hope, change, and fighting back against the oligarchy inspired students at UT, and across Texas.

On to November!

Thank you, Texas! I am honored to be your Democratic nominee for Governor of our beautiful state. Together, we’re going to take on corruption and it’s going to be a new day in TX.

You have put your faith in me, and I promise to put my all into fighting for you and your families. On to November!

In the wake of this weekend’s tragedy on 6th Street, our community is coming together to support those impacted. I’m hosting a blood drive at City Hall this Monday from 11 AM to 5 PM. If you’re able, please consider donating. Your generosity can help save lives. Learn more: weareblood.org

America is praying for Austin.

But there is something profoundly cynical about asking God to solve a problem we're not willing to solve ourselves.

God moves and works through us. God has no other hands but our hands.

We must act.

UDems stands against all unlawful and unjustifiable aggression against Iran. Trump is using our tax dollars to enrich the Epstein billionaire class. Every dime he spends killing children abroad are tax dollars that could have been spent at home bettering the lives of Americans.

Early Voting: Feb 17-27
Election Day: Mar 3

Vote for @jamestalarico.bsky.social for U.S. Senate🤘

UT Austin students on why they’re voting for James Talarico 👏

“The only thing more powerful than hate is love.”

2.5 weeks out from early voting, University Democrats is rolling out our barn signs across Austin, encouraging students to go out and vote for @jamestalarico.bsky.social for Senate as well as when/where to vote. Check out some of the signs at the Lamar and MLK intersection!

University of Texas at Austin Fight For Our Texas Rally Jester Auditorium Wednesday, February 4th, Time: 1:00 PM Featuring James Talarico for U.S. Senate

Howdy, Longhorns! We are hosting @jamestalarico.bsky.social for the "Fight For Our Texas Rally" in Jester Auditorium on Wednesday, Feb. 4th.

All students, faculty, and staff are welcome to join us and hear more about a bright future for Texas.

Before I was a Democrat, I was oilfield trash. Trump just spent our tax dollars destabilizing Venezuela, making Texas’s economy weaker in the process.

As Railroad Commissioner, I will always fight for Texans first.

Yes! Open to everyone!

Hey Longhorns! We are excited to announce our first general meeting of the semester, on Wednesday, 1/14, at 6 PM, in Jester Auditorium (JES A121A), with Guest Speaker @betoorourke.bsky.social!

Excellent, inspiring night in Frisco, TX with the Frisco Democratic Club and a fine roster of candidates! 2026 is only days away. Let’s team up and change Texas leadership.

Honored to support @poojaintexas.bsky.social in her race for HD 47! She’s been a true champion of students for years and we’re excited to see her continue the work at our Capitol.

Three years ago, Austin elected me to fight for a more affordable, more just Austin.

We’ve delivered real change – even when the state pushed back.

I’m running for re-election to keep fighting for our future. zoforaustin.com

Endorsements — Joe Jaworski for Texas

One Hundred Fifteen Texas Democratic leaders have endorsed my campaign for Texas Attorney General. www.jaworskifortexas.com/endorsements

This campaign is about more than politics.

It’s about loving our neighbors — not just in words, but in work.

I was proud to join our volunteers in serving warm meals to our neighbors in Dallas.

After hours of deliberation, our members have selected the most pro-student candidates for the upcoming election to endorse. We will be knocking on doors, lit-dropping, putting out advertisements, poll greeting, and so much more for our endorsed candidates.

On November 19, UDems hosted our 2026 Democratic Primary Endorsement Forum. Dozens of candidates from across the state attended and talked with our members about their campaigns.

Congrats to our 2026 Democratic Primary Endorsed Candidates!

It’s official!

I just filed to run for the US Senate.

It’s time to take power back for working people.

Thanks to @udemstx.com for hosting us at their 2026 Democratic Primary Endorsement Forum! While they ultimately decided to stay neutral in our race, I'm still honored to participate in the democratic process. Great job persevering through UT's booking mix-up, the future is looking bright!

Grateful to @poojaintexas.bsky.social for her constant support of UDems and students!

Back on the Forty Acres tonight with the mighty, might UDems.

My fellow Texas Democrats and I broke quorum to shine a national spotlight on Trump’s redistricting power grab.

We inspired other states and millions of Americans to join the fight.

Moments ago a federal court struck down his rigged map.

This is why we fight back.

Today, a Three-Judge Panel issued a preliminary injunction against Abbott's illegal maps in a huge blow to Trump's scheme to hurt working families and consolidate power.

Although it will be appealed, this decision is a win and ensures our voices will be heard at the Midterms.

Always great to be back on the UT campus - especially with the UDems!! 🤘🤘💪💪🔥🔥❤️❤️
