    For context: Communities (mainly POC) across Texas have long complained about pollution from concrete plants, claiming it contributes to health problems. Many of them have been fighting new plants for years or trying to shut down existing ones. This one is a white community.

    I can’t express how HAPPY it makes me to receive “I Voted” selfies from my parents. 😭 #VOTE Both are Mexican immigrants who believe strongly in the importance of casting their ballots. 👏🏼 They sent me a text: “Te ganamos. ¡Ahora tu!” ~ We beat you to voting. Now your turn.
