This post begins a series of blogs this summer revisiting the 2024 Texas Democratic Party Platform and how we are continuing to embody and invest in these principles. The 2024 Texas Democratic Party Platform begins with section on wages and workers. Let’s look at some of the major points, some context, and hopefully some derived hope and direction for the 2026 campaign.  From the overview, the Party supports policies and programs that: “Promote jobs with good wages, benefits, and safe working conditions;…” Following the overview, a series of planks, beginning with “All Texas workers should receive living wage indexed to inflation, including tipped workers”.
How strong a plank this should be for our party, the state over? How little have we heard about this since the election (If I were writing from an area with a stronger union presence, or if I maybe frequented other news sources, I might have a different perspective here). |
