OUR REPUBLIC

CREATING A HEALTHIER DEMOCRACY FOR TEXANS.

We are everyday Texans uniting to create a government that works for the People.

ARE YOU FRUSTRATED
WITH THE TWO-PARTY SYSTEM?

  • Tired of extreme views becoming law?
  • Exhausted by the ongoing culture wars being stoked by the left and the right?
  • Left feeling that your vote doesn’t matter?
  • Wondering why elected officials seldom solve problems everyday Texans face?

WE FEEL YOUR PAIN.

DISSATISFACTION WITH THE DUOPOLY
IS AT AN ALL-TIME HIGH.

People want to feel represented, to have choices, and to be able to hold
their representatives accountable. But in single-party rule states like
Texas, the dominant party is moving to entrench its rule, limit choice at
the ballot box, and dictate the outcome of elections.

TOGETHER WE CAN FIX OUR DEMOCRACY
AND HOLD OUR REPRESENTATIVES ACCOUNTABLE

The Texas Forward Party is an alternative to the duopoly, whose motives have become increasingly driven by greed and power. We are working to create a stronger democracy that works for the people. We believe
we can accomplish this through:
Independent redistricting committees, Voting Reform and
Non-Partisan primaries.

We understand that Austin’s needs differ from those of West Texas. By listening to one another we can bridge the gap and move Forward Together.

GRASSROOTS/ BOTTOM-UP, NOT TOP-DOWN.

The Texas Forward Party focuses on the needs of Texas and Texans, not DC. There is no rigid platform; we will build the party to reflect our principles and values.

MOVING FORWARD TOGETHER

The Texas Forward Party is 100% volunteer-driven. Sure, we disagree, but at the end of the day, we come to the table and find a solution that works for all.

“This is going to be my last year,” my English teacher told us as we finished our final. As a high school student, “last year” is a phrase I’ve heard over and over last school year. Teachers, whether they teach Kindergarten or other teachers, seemed more likely to leave than ever before. READ MORE

TEXAS FORWARD PARTY STATEMENT ON THE PAXTON IMPEACHMENT VERDICT

The Texas Forward Party is deeply concerned by the Senate’s acquittal in the case against Attorney General Ken Paxton. We believe this decision was based on the fear of political consequences, rather than on a sober assessment of the evidence laid before them. Their actions significantly undermine the principles of transparency and accountability that should underpin all areas of public service and compromise the integrity of our judicial and political systems.
