Senator-wannabe tied to trans-lovin' group backing end to parental rights
WND ^ | 11/12/2023 | Arjun Singh

Democratic Rep. Colin Allred of Texas’ 32nd District, who is running for the Senate against Republican incumbent Ted Cruz in 2024, has partnered with and received donations to his congressional campaigns from a left-wing group that engages in transgender advocacy, according to media reviewed by the Daily Caller News Foundation.

Allred, a three-term Congressman from Dallas who represents a suburb of that city, announced in May that he would challenge Republican Ted Cruz for Texas’ junior Senate seat. Throughout his political career, Allred has been closely affiliated with the Human Rights Campaign (HRC), a group that has advocated on a variety of pro-transgender issues, according to campaign finance records and videos of his past appearances with the group.

“Of all the support that I receive from any group, there might not be any more that I’m more proud of than HRC,” Allred said at an HRC-organized rally in August 2019.

Allred previously received $8,062.36 in-kind and cash donations from HRC for his congressional campaigns, according to the Federal Election Commission, and has received their help to contact voters and host political events.

Texas Ping, the Best State in the USA!

A ping out to the Texas Ping list, founded by Windflier.

Colin Allred is a media favorite. Sure, WND may be sensationalistic, but Allred does have a penchant for picking media favorites and then quietly supporting them in the background. This group is not a group that he should support, based on his other stated beliefs.

Another special Texas winter edition for your perusal.

As always, please FReepmail me if you want on or off the Texas Ping list.

Blessings, and stay warm!

Democratic Rep. Colin Allred

I despise how we "shoot ourselves in the foot"

EVERY TIME

...we say democratic instead of democrat.

...because "Democratic" is "good", right?

No. There's nothing "Democratic" about democrats.

Nothing at all.

He’s now my Congress Critter, thanks to redistricting…thanks Republican Party.
I’ve lived here nearly 30 years, why should I vote Republican any longer?

Figures he would partner with a “fringe” group that have several screws loose. So.... what’s that say about the senator wannabe?
