Anyone accepting a $5,000 “GOP Dividend” from Trump for voting is looking at a $10,000 fine and 5 years in jail. It's illegal to offer, give, or accept money for voting. 52 U.S.C. §10307(c) Trump has already violated this law. But voters they will never be liable because they will never get paid.

James Talarico wants to lower costs for working families. The other is Ken Paxton. Texas, we have a chance to flip a U.S. Senate seat and send James Talarico to Washington. Let’s finish it. 🗳️ #SheShed
Election graphic for the 2026 Texas U.S. Senate race featuring Democrat James Talarico and Republican Ken Paxton side by side. Talarico, a Texas state representative and former public school teacher, is shown with the priority “Lower costs for working families.” Paxton, Texas attorney general since 2015, is shown with the priority “Border security and tax cuts.” Text at the top reads “Texas U.S. Senate — General Election • November 3, 2026.” The Texas Capitol appears in the background with a large “VS” between the candidates. #SheShed branding appears at the bottom.

Trump Ag Secretary Brooke Rollins just called his SNAP cuts a "pretty big win". Throwing 5 million struggling Americans — including families with children — off food aid to fund tax cuts for the rich isn't a "win". It's a national disgrace.
