Jolt Action

🎊🏳️🌈 Feliz Pride! We're celebrating Tejano Pride and attending our community events to register all those still needing to get active with their civic duty - want to invite us to your event to register voters? Hit us up on our Event Inquiry form - https://loom.ly/1pzDCSY

How realistic are the GOP narratives insisting that immigrants steal jobs? The NBER found that immigrants actually boost wages and employment rates for U.S.-born workers. Not only that, but the influx of new labor increases our ability to produce, helping the US control its inflation and reducing everyone’s cost of living. The GOP couldn't possibly be trying to use our financial fears to make us vote for their xenophobic policies, could they? #diverseteams #JolttheSystem

News like this does not show that the state's takeover of HISD is in the interest of the students. Studies have shown that takeovers don’t increase academic achievement and bring into question the tactics taken by the TEA. https://lnkd.in/eadtjT46

Data from EveryTexan: When researching this, we thought the numbers between 1st and 2nd of most uninsured people in the state would be closer together. But take a look at the graph, we're ahead by a fair amount according to census numbers. Having low-access to quality healthcare is a big barrier to the quality of life our communities deserve! We must vote for representatives that will champion our values like Healthcare for All! #RegisterToVote and #JoltTheVote this November.
