The CEO of Every Texan has addressed the community following recent elections, emphasizing the importance of resilience and continuous effort towards building a just and equitable Texas. "We know this week has been difficult for many of our loved ones, communities, partners, and friends, and we are still processing everything that has happened," the statement begins. Despite the uncertainty surrounding the current times, Every Texan stresses that it is not a moment to retreat but rather to advance their mission.
Grit is highlighted as one of Every Texan's core values. The organization commits to working with passion, conviction, and perseverance in pursuit of their vision for prosperity for all Texans. "Our work to create a just and equitable Texas doesn’t begin or end with a single election; it’s a daily commitment that endures beyond any individual cycle or outcome," they affirm.
For 39 years, Every Texan has focused on establishing resilient and inclusive infrastructure aimed at long-term positive change. The CEO encourages individuals to stay informed and engaged with groups sharing similar values as an avenue for fostering meaningful change. "Our greatest strength is in our people — we can’t do this without YOU," they declare.
As part of their strategy moving forward, Every Texan invites supporters to consider contributing financially by joining their monthly giving program called The Collective. These resources are deemed essential for preparing for upcoming challenges such as the 2025 Legislative Session where priorities will include advocating for improved public schools, quality health care, safe working conditions, livable wages, fair taxes, democracy strengthening measures, and services promoting common welfare.
In conclusion, Marisa Bono along with the Every Texan Team reaffirms their commitment to collective action towards creating a future aligned with their ideals: "Today and every day, we stand with our communities and all who believe in the power of collective action."
