Beto O’Rourke I met Beto O’Rourke at Joy AME Church in South Dallas just before he was about to meet the pastor and knock on doors in the neighborhood to register new voters with his organization Powered by People.
The group registers voters and fights voter suppression. He said members of his group have become certified voter registrars in every county and he’s engaging future voters by talking to people about issues that interest them.
What interests O’Rourke right now is voter suppression. He said thanks to the efforts of people like Rep. Jessica Gonzalez, those efforts in the Legislature have been at least delayed.
