Manuel- Aug. 22, 2014

MANUEL ALVARADO: When you're battling cancer, you pray for a cure, but Greg Abbott did his best to keep my prayers from being answered. Greg Abbott was charged with overseeing the state Cancer Research Fund, but he let his wealthiest donors take tens of millions in taxpayer dollars without proper oversight. They showered Abbott with gifts and free vacations, and they made off with money that was meant to find a cure. I pray that Greg Abbott never becomes our governor.

Nicole's Story- Feb. 27, 2014
February 27, 2014
NICOLE ANDERSON: My name is Nicole, I'm 34 years old, and I'm a rape survivor. I'm speaking out because it really bothered me for Greg Abbott to partner with Ted Nugent knowing his history of being a predator. I was at home, I heard about it on the news, and it made me feel like it minimizes the fact that Ted Nugent is a predator. I think that it sends the wrong message that he partnered up with this man that is very vocal about liking underage girls. There's something […]

A Texas Story - Oct. 7, 2013
October 7, 2013
WENDY DAVIS: Every Texan has their own story about what Texas means to them. Our stories are as big and inspiring as the state itself. We work hard, and we dream big. We're risk-takers and entrepreneurs, from the wildcatters who built the American oil and gas industry to the ranchers and farmers who worked this hard land. We're leaders and builders and doers, and we don't back down from a challenge. I suppose that's why, to me, Texas has always been a place of tremendous optimism and endless opportunity. It's […]

Mad Mitch - Aug. 4, 2014
August 4, 2014
GRIMES: If Mitch McConnell were a TV show, he'd be "Mad Men," treating women unfairly, stuck in 1968 and ending this season. [Clapping and booing] Seriously.

Court-Sept. 4, 2014
September 4, 2014
ANNOUNCER: In a Texas courtroom, Greg Abbott made the case against our children. He fought for five billion dollars in cuts to education made by his insider buddies, and now Abbott's proposing giving standardized test to 4-year-olds. Heard enough? Wendy Davis- she'll reduce the number of standardized tests our kids take across the board, she'll cut bureaucratic waste and Davis will use education to build an economy for all hard-working Texans. You decide. Who'll be best for Texas?

Nikki Haley celebrated today the passing of the Education Reform Plan. It will allow more funding for schools in high poverty areas. WINDY CORDOVANO: Gov. Haley didn't just talk about education. She listened to teachers and parents, and she got results. Nikki Haley makes a difference.

Justice- Oct. 10, 2014
October 10, 2014
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: A tree fell on Greg Abbott. He sued and got millions. Since then, he's spent his career working against other victims. Abbott argued a woman whose leg was amputated was not disabled because she had an artificial limb. He ruled against a rape victim who sued a corporation for failing to do a background check on a sexual predator. He sided with a hospital that failed to stop a dangerous surgeon who paralyzed patients. Greg Abbott - he's not for you.
