My @SEIU family. Y'all showed up with so much heart, courage, and LOVE. I am in awe of you. Every single day. There is no movement I'd rather be a part of, and no people I'd rather fight alongside. ✊🏾

Now that we've flipped #Texas and elected leaders who will fight for working families, we're excited to bring about the changes we need. It's time for more money, more power, and more respect for all Texans! #BlueWave

Tomorrow, we reject the fear and chaos meant to keep us divided. Tomorrow, we choose each other. Tomorrow, we remind them that working people have power. And the day after? We take that power with us into every fight that comes next.

Medicine or groceries? NO ONE should have to make that choice. Tomorrow, working people have a different choice to make: whether we accept an economy that keeps squeezing us, or use our power to demand better. Show up. Vote. Make your voice heard. theguardian.com/us-news/2026…

When you head to the polls tomorrow, think about your WHY. Your family. Your community. Your future. Whatever your why is, carry it with you to the ballot box. 💜 And remember: our work doesn’t end when the polls close. We keep showing up. We keep organizing. And we fighting. ✊🏿

We deserve representatives who want to build a future where our families are safe and secure, our wages are enough, and our voices are respected. United, we can vote out corruption and vote in change. Commit to voting by Nov. 3.

Ghosts? Fine. Ghouls? Whatever. Giving away your power by not voting? TERRIFYING.
