    Did you catch us floating down the #SanMarcos River earlier this month? 🛟 🌊 We made a splash with Float the Vote, a fun summer event where we #connected with people over 🌭hot dogs, 🎶music, 🥤swag, and 🗳️voting! Thanks to our friends at the Center for Cultural Strategy, Texas Rising, Jolt Action, and MOVE TX for helping us put this together. 💜 This is what our Political Director, Shelly Baker had to say: “Now more than ever it is important to show young people the power their ballot holds and the impact it can have in communities across Texas. This is how we reach young voters and bring them along for the ride throughout the state and into the November elections. We’re making voting as easy as a summer day on the river.” ☀️🐢 #100 days until the November elections! Make sure you’re registered to #vote
