   CWA members and allies in Texas have been mobilizing to build support   
   and turn out the vote for CWA-endorsed pro-worker candidates for the   
   Texas primary elections, which were held on Tuesday.   
      
   In a large, sweeping victory, pro-worker Austin city council member   
   Greg Casar won his race for Congressional District 35. Casar has   
   raised the minimum wage to $15 an hour and authored the paid sick day   
   law in Austin. He will continue to be a champion for workers' rights   
   in Washington.   
      
   CWA-endorsed candidate Jessica Cisneros forced Rep. Henry Cuellar   
   (D-Texas) into a run-off election in Congressional District 28 that is   
   scheduled for May 24. CWA members are leading the push to hold   
   Cuellar, a long-time, anti-worker Congressman who was the only   
   Democrat to vote against the PRO Act, accountable. Cisneros is a   
   proven workers' rights champion, and CWAers in Texas will continue to   
   support her until she successfully defeats Cuellar.   
      
   CWA-endorsed gubernatorial candidate Beto O'Rourke won the Democratic   
   nomination for Governor. The weekend prior to the election, CWA, SEIU,   
   and Workers United joined together to host a phone bank for O'Rourke   
   at CWA Local 6222 in Houston. Over 60 people participated in the phone   
   bank including O'Rourke himself, who spoke to the workers about the   
   importance of having the backing of the labor movement and how working   
   Texans are a priority for his campaign and the future of Texas.
