Let's Work It !
Join the Texas Democratic Party as we build our year-round organizing machine to take on Republican extremists in the Texas Capitol.
On these calls, we will:
- Educate voters on what’s happening at the Lege,
- Assist VDRs renew their certification so they can register voters,
- Invite Democrats to upcoming events around the state, and prepare for the worst if we need to check in on our neighbors during extreme winter conditions.
We can make this Texas a Texas that works for everyone, but we can’t do it without you – we look forward to seeing you on the call!

Op-Eds and Letters to the Editor
A relatively easy and impactful way to get attention for our issues in your local media is by submitting an op-ed or a letter to the editor. Newspapers typically have submission guidelines for each, so be sure to read and follow those. Below are the email addresses for both Blanco and Johnson City Newspapers

Johnson City Record
Op-Eds
An op-ed is usually an opinion piece that is authored by a person outside of the publication’s editorial board. The point is sometimes to provide an alternative viewpoint to the editorial boards. The Op-Ed Project has some great suggestions for writing op-eds and getting them published.

Letters to the Editor
A letter to the editor is sent to a publication in reaction to a recently published story or to bring up issues or concerns from dedicated readers. Elizabeth Warren’s campaign provided a quick and easy guide to writing letters to the editor and getting them published, for reference.
