Beto O’Rourke @betoorourke.bsky.social · 22/01/2026Dear Europe, We understand your fear and frustration at what looks like our acceptance or complacence, even our complicity, in our own undoing and the undoing of the world. But there is cause for hope and the opportunity to act. betoorourke.substack.com/p/dear-europebetoorourke.substack.comDear EuropeHold strong against this madness 1215053
Beto O’Rourke @betoorourke.bsky.social · 15/01/2026Obsessing over polls won't change things. Action will. It's the antidote to despair, the key to victory, and what Trump fears the most. So at Powered by People, we're going to keep pushing at all times, on all fronts, wherever we are, with whatever we have, until we win. Join us: PoweredxPeople.org 724381
Beto O’Rourke @betoorourke.bsky.social · 05/12/2025Concede nothing. Let’s register and work with every eligible voter we can find so that we compete in and win these new districts and pick up seats currently held by Republicans too. 12404120
Beto O’Rourke @betoorourke.bsky.social · 03/12/2025We got Tofunmi registered to vote on his 18th Birthday. Now, we’re going to stay in touch with him and ensure he turns out in the most voter-suppressed state in the union. This is the work that works—meeting our fellow texans face to face, registering voters, & helping them make their voices heard. 940081
Beto O’Rourke @betoorourke.bsky.social · 02/12/2025A cold, rainy day didn’t stop us from meeting students at UT and Austin Community College — updating their voter registration, getting them on to the rolls, signing them up to volunteer, and staying in touch so that we can turn them out to vote and win big elections up and down the ballot. 423139

Beto O’Rourke @betoorourke.bsky.social · 18/11/2025GREAT NEWS. Trump's Texas gerrymander of 5 Congressional seats knocked down. Trump-appointed judge says "Substantial evidence shows that Texas racially gerrymandered the 2025 Map." Orders Texas midterms proceed under prior maps. www.texastribune.org/2025/11/18/t...texastribune.orgFederal court blocks new Texas congressional map for 2026The decision is a major blow for Republicans, in Texas and nationally, who pushed through this unusual mid-decade redistricting at the behest of President Donald Trump. 1033282
Beto O’Rourke @betoorourke.bsky.social · 17/11/20253 days, 3 cities, 300+ miles on the road.

Beto O’Rourke @betoorourke.bsky.social · 15/11/2025Spent the evening in San Antonio talking with Texans about the importance of running for a place on the ballot—from local offices to the State House. If we field a strong candidate for every office, we not only have a much stronger chance of flipping seats down ballot but also at winning statewide. 124147
Beto O’Rourke @betoorourke.bsky.social · 15/11/2025Just wrapped up another great day of organizing on college campuses.

Beto O’Rourke @betoorourke.bsky.social · 03/11/2025In 2018, we swung McLennan County by 22 points from the last Senate race. We did it by showing up again and again, organizing on the ground, building a volunteer army, turning out first time voters, and working with local candidates. 416131
Beto O’Rourke @betoorourke.bsky.social · 02/11/2025Spent the afternoon talking to Texans in Brazos County, which voted for Trump by 25 points.

Beto O’Rourke @betoorourke.bsky.social · 31/10/2025Great event in McKinney last night as we continue helping to recruit the candidates and volunteers who will ensure that we have the net new Democratic voters necessary to win up and down the ballot. 29726
Beto O’Rourke @betoorourke.bsky.social · 31/10/2025Some people talk about coattails that flow down from the top of the ticket. But we know that one of the reasons we got so close to winning in 2018 was because of the incredible candidates down ballot who were pushing votes and power up all the way to the top. 212930
Beto O’Rourke @betoorourke.bsky.social · 30/10/2025Hundreds of people came out last night in Fort Worth to support Taylor Rehmet’s (Nov. 4) special election campaign for TX Senate District 9.

Beto O’Rourke @betoorourke.bsky.social · 22/09/2025If we’re unable to organize politically, freely contest political decisions, peacefully and democratically vie for power, then we no longer live in a democracy.
