ANNOUNCEMENT: Texas Democratic Convention Launch Speaker Lineup, Congressman Colin Allred to Keynote

 AUSTIN, Texas  Texas remains the battleground of battlegrounds, and firmly holds a spotlight within the 2024 national political arena. This general election cycle will ultimately shape the electoral landscape in Texas for generations to come. And to kick off our path to November, the Texas Democratic Party is proud to announce the official 2024 Texas Democratic Convention speaking program with a keynote address from U.S. Senate nominee Congressman Colin Allred:

The 2024 Texas Democratic Convention will be held June 6th-8th in El Paso, Texas. To become a delegate, visit TexasDemocraticConvention.com and learn more.

“Today, Texas Democrats are sending an unequivocal message: Our mission is to elect leaders who will champion and restore our sacred freedoms, liberties, and values at every level of government – and we will not relent until this mission is accomplished. Texans are tired of getting caught in the crossfire of one-sided culture wars, and the choice to boot MAGA Republicans like Ted Cruz out of office has never been easier. With speakers from all over the country – representing coalitions of all backgrounds –  lending their support for the Texas Democratic fight, this convention will showcase Texas’ emergence as a true battleground,” said Texas Democratic Party Chair Gilberto Hinojosa

“My story has been shaped by every part of Texas, and I am so excited to join Texas Democrats from across our great state in El Paso,” said U.S. Senate nominee Congressman Colin Allred. “Texans cannot afford six more years of Ted Cruz, and together we are going to build the broad, diverse coalition we need to win. Let’s get to work.”

“The City of El Paso, situated at the westernmost entrance into our great state, represents the conquering of a new political frontier – Texas as a battleground state. I’m honored to welcome Texas Democrats and my friend Congressman Colin Allred to my hometown to celebrate all we have accomplished and mobilize our base as we look toward November,” said Congresswoman and Convention Co-Chair Veronica Escobar.

“With 30 million people, Texas is the most diverse state in the Union. Our broad coalition of all walks of life is dedicated to empowering working families and securing a bright future for generations to come. With support from local, top-ticket and nationally recognized Democrats like Congressman Colin Allred – our party remains unified as we work to gain grounds across Texas,” said State Senator César J. Blanco
