Beto O’Rourke Quotes
My excitement for Beto O’Rourke continues. And he can actually win! I’m going to volunteer as much as I can in the final 50 days before November 6 to help mobilize voters to get to the polls.
I signed up to manage a “Pop Up Office,” where volunteers will gather to go block walking and phone banking. I also volunteered our house to be used as a Pop Up Office every day from 8am-3pm.
When I went to the training, the facilitator suggested that we put a motivational quote on the walls. I decide to find some Beto quotes to post. However, my search didn’t yield much, which is crazy because he’s such an articulate public speaker!
So here’s my contribution to the inter webs: Beto Quotes

“Everything that they care about—everything that they’ve told their kids about—is on the line…Our kids are going to ask us, ‘When you had the chance to do something in 2018 when they were talking about walls and Muslin bans and the press is the enemy of the people, what did you guys do?’ And we’re going to tell them that we and the 28 million of Texas helped this country get back on track and in the right direction.”—Beto O’Rourke on Real Time with Bill Maher
