Texans for Accountable Government, Political Caucus, Grassroots Activism

Paul Davis explains the structure of Texans for Accountable Government (TAG) as an organized infrastructure to hold politicians accountable. The group recently elected a steering committee and charges a $10 annual membership fee to fund its activities. The hosts argue that even a small group of 500 to 1,000 coordinated activists can force immediate changes in state policy through collective action.
