Texas State Pledge

I join the overwhelming majority of Texas to demand an amendment to the United States Constitution to end the domination of big money in politics and give voice to all Americans.

I will stand with Texas, without regard to party or other differences, and urge all candidates and elected officials to do the same, in order to pass and ratify such a constitutional amendment as soon as possible.

Texas & American Promise

Texans are joining with Americans across the country to strengthen our nation against the corruption of money in politics, foreign interference, division, and dysfunction. We are using our voices to say that the decisions that matter in our state and our lives should be up to us.

In 2020 more than $14B was spent on state elections in the United States, the vast majority of it from a very small percentage of ultra-wealthy donors. To protect the right of Texas voters to make our own decisions and our way of life, we must stand together to end the flood of money drowning out our voices in local, State and Federal elections.

American Promise

The American promise of self-government is being undermined by special interests and dark money. Texas alone is being flooded with hundreds of millions of dollars from out-of-state interests. It’s time for elected officials to protect the integrity of Texas elections by supporting the For Our Freedom Amendment.

Our Progress in
Texas & America

American Promise is mobilizing a grassroots, volunteer-led effort to keep the issue of money in politics at the forefront of the political conversation in each state through media outreach, petition signing events, lobby days, civics education and much more. Here’s a timeline of our progress so far:

Voters and local representatives in nearly 1,000 cities and towns have met in town meetings and local councils to debate and pass resolutions to condemn the influence of unlimited money in elections and to advance the For Our Freedom Amendment.

Volunteering makes American Promise possible in Texas.

Volunteer opportunities include everything from talking with neighbors and colleagues to writing letters to the editor and gathering pledges from elected officials. No matter your skills or interests, you can meaningfully contribute to this critical work.
