Senator Wendy Davis Will Be On Anderson Cooper 360 tonight 7 PM CT/8 PM ET

Thank you.

After getting a few hours of quality sleep last night, it is even more evident that together, we have started something incredible.

From the masses of people at the Capitol until early this morning to the hundreds of thousands watching our filibuster online, we have shown Governor Rick Perry and the failed leadership in Austin that we will not be silenced.

It is because of your determination and dedication that we were able to stop this horrible legislation from being passed last night. Unfortunately, less than 24 hours after our filibuster, Governor Perry has once again chosen the low road of partisanship over the common good by calling a second special session. I have no doubt that our state's failed leadership will do everything they can to thwart the will of the majority of Texans and pass this harmful bill that we worked so hard to defeat. But we have shown them that this time, they will have to listen to us.

Thank you so much for all of your words of encouragement, support, and tireless hard work.

Your friend, and proudly your state senator,


Wendy

P.S. I hope you will tune into Anderson Cooper 360 on CNN tonight at 7 PM CT/8 PM ET to hear me talk about our filibuster.


AWESOME
