JASMINE FOR US SENATE

PROGRESS FOR AMERICA ENDORSES REP. JASMINE CROCKETT FOR U.S. SENATE (TEXAS)

Texas is big enough to hold multitudes: ranch roads and server farms, border towns and global trade lanes, the hush of Sunday morning and the roar of a packed committee hearing. In a state this vast, leadership must be more than a brand. It must be a backbone.

Progress for America (PFA Vote) is endorsing Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D‑TX‑30) for U.S. Senate (Texas).

WHY THIS ENDORSEMENT, AND WHY NOW

A Senate seat is not a trophy. It is a lever—one that can move budgets, judges, civil rights, and the everyday dignity of Texans who simply want to live free, vote freely, and thrive.

Rep. Crockett has built a public record defined by three qualities Texas needs in the next chapter:

1. A democracy defender’s instinct

At a time when voting access, fair maps, and basic civic trust are under constant stress, she brings a clear, consistent posture: democracy is not decorative. It is the operating system. When that system is attacked, you don’t whisper. You respond.

2. Accountability without apology

Power rarely yields on its own. It responds to scrutiny, sunlight, and the refusal to accept “that’s just how it is.” Rep. Crockett has demonstrated a willingness to ask hard questions out loud—especially when the consequences of silence would land hardest on working people, Black communities, and those already living at the edge of institutional neglect.

3. A willingness to hold more than one truth at once

Politics tries to force a narrow lens: pick one issue; pick one crisis; pick one enemy. Real leadership widens the frame.

Reporting and public discussions around Rep. Crockett’s voting record have emphasized that she has supported supplemental packages that are not single‑note bills—measures that include security provisions and humanitarian relief for multiple communities caught in conflict. In a world of cascading crises, Texans deserve leaders who can govern with both moral clarity and logistical seriousness.

WHAT WE’RE REJECTING

We’re rejecting the cynicism that says our choices don’t matter.

We’re rejecting the way Black women candidates are too often “tested” differently—reduced to a single issue, demanded to be perfect, and punished for being visible.

We’re rejecting rumor-as-politics. On topics like campaign funding and endorsements, the public record matters more than viral talking points—and it deserves to be treated like evidence, not gossip.

WHAT WE’RE CHOOSING

We are choosing a candidate whose public service reflects a simple proposition: Texans should have a government that protects them, not preys on them—one that values truth, rights, and the lived reality of people who cannot afford to be treated as collateral.

If you want a Texas that is harder to silence and easier to live in—where your vote counts, your voice matters, and your rights are not up for auction—this is a moment to move.
