Today we're gonna talk about Texas.

For a decade, maybe 100 years, we've heard over and over, this is the year we flip Texas. Sometimes we get closer, sometimes we get much further away. But as much as I'm excited about a candidate like James Talarico, I am always more interested in the people standing up to run in their communities at the state and local level.

So today, I'm going to introduce you to Junior Ezeonu. You all ave asked for more examples of people fighting for progress you can actually see and touch and feel. And in this batch of conversations, another one in partnership with our best friends at Run For Something, we're giving you exactly what you asked for.

And my friends, that's exactly who Junior is. I can't wait for you to hear more about him.
