Beverly Powell @beverlyp.bsky.social · 11/07/2025I grew up in a Gold Star Family, raised by a father who was a Silver Star hero in WWII. Every single one of the heroes in my family would be devastated over what our governments are perpetrating in American streets. Don’t hide from this…rise up, speak out…vote them out! 47631
Beverly Powell @beverlyp.bsky.social · 09/07/2025Truth telling right here. Add to this, we have the most unserious government in the history of America (and Texas). We must recruit the best candidates at every level and support them to the winner’s circle with $s and grassroots campaigning…we must! 0195
Beverly Powell @beverlyp.bsky.social · 07/07/2025This is what happens when leadership focuses the lion’s share of legislative time to pointless culture wars. Time for Texas to focus on people over politics! 78822
Beverly Powell @beverlyp.bsky.social · 12/06/2025Complete abuse of power. Senator Padilla is a fine, decent man who embodies all the qualities you look for in a great leader. He is warm and welcoming, kind and gracious. I wish he were my U.S. Senator. This despicable, disgraceful assault on him is disturbing and un-American! 1236

Beverly Powell @beverlyp.bsky.social · 19/05/2025Marc Elias, want to see how they really disenfranchise voters of color, take a look at the gerrymander of my Senate District 10 in 2021 redistricting. Took away all the minority power at the ballot box by cracking and packing them in heavily white areas. Happens in Texas over and over, every level. 0153
Beverly Powell @beverlyp.bsky.social · 15/05/2025LOOK IT UP. As a business person I’ve lived this truth…I can never understand why we need to ride this roller coaster. 0150
Beverly Powell @beverlyp.bsky.social · 08/05/2025My dad would have been 100 this year, a WWII Battle of the Bulge Silver Star hero, so proud of his service to defeat fascism. He would have loved this #teslatakedown. I love it for him! Americans, we must keep fighting for our democracy! 1132
Beverly Powell @beverlyp.bsky.social · 01/05/2025A few years ago, our Texas Democratic Legislative delegation sat around a conference table with VP Harris taking about voter suppression. Not one legislator felt compelled to any utterance of malignantly sycophantic rhetoric. Trump’s ego (and economic strategy) must be fragile as a house of straw! 0163
Beverly Powell @beverlyp.bsky.social · 18/04/2025America should treat Fox Propaganda Stations like they do Tesla. Every major city has one, and they are easy to locate! Fox is a carbuncle on the ass of America. 0153
Beverly Powell @beverlyp.bsky.social · 14/04/2025Prophetic ad from October, 2024. On the money, every item on the list checked off before the end of first 90 days. What’s next… 026989
Beverly Powell @beverlyp.bsky.social · 09/04/2025If you doubt your boycott of Amazon is making an impact, just take a look at the new TV/Cable ad. Major whining about how Amazon just reps product for small American businesses. Perhaps Bezos should have thought about that before he supported Fascism with their small business $ millions. 2231574
Beverly Powell @beverlyp.bsky.social · 04/04/2025The Texas Oligarchy has emboldened the leadership of Texas with overwhelming amounts of dark money right out in the open.

Beverly Powell @beverlyp.bsky.social · 20/03/2025On this day, we can use a story of hope! Courageously conscientious foundations, corporations and citizens came together to build a new Legacy Elementary for children in Uvalde, Texas. Heroes coming together to stand in the gap for kids. Moving in this Fall! 27414
Beverly Powell @beverlyp.bsky.social · 19/03/2025This is the reality for child-bearing age women in Texas. Appalling consequences for young women who want nothing more than to have autonomy over their own bodies, their own futures, their ability to have a baby after a miscarriage. Heartbreaking consequences for women! 214082

Beverly Powell @beverlyp.bsky.social · 17/03/2025If I learned one thing after 10 years on a public school board and 4 years in Texas Senate…Term limits good…20 years, plenty long enough.

Beverly Powell @beverlyp.bsky.social · 18/02/2025We are moving toward an oligarchy at warp speed. We must stop the interference of Musk and his team if juvenile misfits.

Beverly Powell @beverlyp.bsky.social · 15/02/2025There is life after elected office.
