Dr. Opal Lee tells us we should celebrate Juneteenth from June 19 to July 4. And wouldn't you know it, the anniversary of the signing of the Civil Rights Act is right then - on today, July 2.
Happy Anniversary to this law which stands up for equity and justice in the United States. We have so much more work to do still, but we are so eternally grateful for those that worked and sacrificed for all the freedoms and fairness we enjoy now.

🌈 As Pride Month comes to a close today, we're reflecting on an incredible June filled with community, celebration and a shared commitment to equality.
From our inaugural Barney Frank Memorial Progressive Pride Crawl to conversations with advocates, candidates and supporters... we were proud to celebrate the many voices that make our party stronger.
A special thank you to former Fort Worth City Councilmember Joel Burns for joining us and sharing his powerful story. As Tarrant County's first openly gay elected official, Joel helped pave the way for greater representation and inspired through his courage.
We're also grateful to local performer Carrie Björk for entertaining during the final stop of our Pride Crawl, where we welcomed and introduced Democratic candidates while celebrating our community together. We also appreciate Bearded Lady, Amphibian Stage and Grandma's bar.
The Tarrant County Democratic Party is an inclusive community that welcomes everyone who believes in protecting equal rights, expanding opportunity and treating every person with dignity and respect.
While June may be ending, our commitment to equality, justice and opportunity for all continues every day of the year. 🏳️🌈💙

It has been a busy month for the decisions coming out of the Supreme Court. It has also been a month of critical decisions being made which represent justice and a willingness to actually use the United States Constitution as a guiding light, and also many decisions which seem just the opposite.
We are absolutely elated over the decisions to uphold birthright citizenship and mail-in ballot grace periods, in particular.
We are disappointed that any of these decisions were as close as they were.
The bad decisions from the recent slate of rulings join the absolute gutting of the voting rights act which recently occurred. The relatively large number of justices (whether or not they were in the majority in any decision) who repeatedly and blatantly decide in opposition of what is clearly in our Constitution, and in some cases in favor of clearly upholding bad laws, continue to be a rallying cry for the work ahead of us.

We thought long and hard about how best the Tarrant County Democratic Party can celebrate our nation's 250th birthday. ❤️🤍💙
We could think of no other event - no barbecue, no big band, no slate of candidate speeches, no fireworks display - that would be as appropriate or impactful as a day of action. 🗽💪
To celebrate our nation's historic anniversary, we will be walking blocks, knocking doors, and talking to voters about what's important to them. We will be launching walks from all over the county at 9am on Saturday, July 11.
Candidates from all over the county will be walking right alongside you. Every location will be a blast while you gather and get your training and walking materials. We'll provide snacks, hydration, and some peak America accessories. Wear your favorite red, white, & blue to help us pay homage to our great nation!
No experience required - we'll show you what to do! Bring your walking shoes and your willingness to talk to voters. 👟
Details on all locations and sign ups coming soon!
