Hey El Paso! As we celebrate craft beer week at Old Sheepdog Brewery we reflect on the craft beer industry in El Paso. We love you but we need your help!

As you all know, there is nothing more that we love than giving back to our community. We have collaborated with numerous non for profits in the region from dog shelters and rescues, women empowering foundations, veteran centered entities, artists, creators, small business owners… etc.

But now we are on the other side of the fence and require your help. Business has slowed tremendously for us this year as we grew into our new 7 Barrel Brewhouse! We have a lot of beer to sell and we need your help to do so.

Visit us today, this week, or tell a friend. Share our posts on social media, bring co-workers, host parties with us!

We want to be around for another 5 years and can’t do it without your support.

Somos la cerveza del pueblo! Y queremos seguir siéndolo por muchos años más! 😢

This week's City Council meeting was a reminder of why Justicia Fronteriza PAC was founded and why we say "la lucha sigue."

Declaración de apoyo a Annunciation House.

Justicia Fronteriza PAC se solidariza con Annunciation House, una organización que encarna el espíritu de compasión, solidaridad y dignidad humana en nuestra comunidad.

En los últimos años, las comunidades fronterizas de El Paso han enfrentado desafíos sin precedentes debido a una combinación de negligencia federal y campañas de intimidación dirigidas por el estado. Sin embargo, Annunciation House ha permanecido
como un faro de esperanza, extendiendo una mano de bienvenida a los migrantes necesitados.

Durante más de cuatro décadas, Annunciation House ha ejemplificado los más altos ideales compartidos de nuestra comunidad. Inspirados por el Evangelio y arraigados en la
compasión, sus incansables esfuerzos han proporcionado comida, refugio y apoyo a innumerables personas que huyen del peligro y buscan refugio en nuestra frontera.

Demuestran no solo el compromiso de nuestra comunidad con los principios de justicia y empatía, sino también nuestra responsabilidad colectiva de preservar la dignidad
inherente de cada ser humano.

Como comité de acción política de base dedicado a promover los derechos y la dignidad individuales, Justicia Fronteriza PAC está en total desacuerdo con los injustos ataques del Fiscal General Ken Paxton contra Annunciation House. Tales acciones no solo socavan la vital asistencia humanitaria proporcionada por esta organización, sino que también traicionan nuestros valores fundamentales como sociedad compasiva.

Annunciation House es una organización sin fines de lucro que brinda un servicio valioso a nuestra comunidad al cuidar a aquellos que de otra manera podrían estar viviendo en las calles de El Paso. Aquellos que sirven desinteresadamente a nuestra población migrante merecen nuestro más profundo respeto, apoyo, protección y gratitud. Rechazamos cualquier intento de hacer chivos expiatorios o perseguirlos por conveniencia política.

En cambio, afirmamos nuestro compromiso de estar junto a Annunciation House y todos aquellos que defienden la causa de la justicia, la compasión y la solidaridad en nuestra
comunidad fronteriza. En este momento crítico, reafirmemos nuestra promesa compartida de mantener la identidad de nuestras tierras fronterizas, un lugar definido por la compasión, la fraternidad y la esperanza radical. Juntos, continuaremos abogando por un futuro en el que cada individuo sea tratado con la dignidad, el respeto y la compasion que merece, independientemente de su estatus migratorio

Statement of Support for Annunciation House

Justicia Fronteriza PAC stands in solidarity with Annunciation House, an organization that embodies the spirit of compassion, solidarity, and human dignity in our community.

Over the past few years, the borderlands of El Paso have faced unprecedented challenges due to a combination of federal neglect and state-led intimidation campaigns. Yet, Annunciation
House has remained a beacon of hope, extending a welcoming hand to migrants in need.

For over four decades, Annunciation House has exemplified the highest ideals of our shared humanity. Inspired by the Gospel and rooted in compassion, their tireless efforts have provided
food, shelter, and support to countless individuals fleeing danger and seeking refuge at our border. They demonstrate not only our community's commitment to the principles of justice
and empathy, but also our collective responsibility to preserve the inherent dignity of each and every human being.

As a grassroots political action committee dedicated to advancing individual rights and dignity, Justicia Fronteriza PAC strongly disagrees with Attorney General Ken Paxton's unjust attacks
against Annunciation House. Such actions not only undermine the vital humanitarian assistance provided by this organization but also betray our fundamental values as a compassionate
society.

The Annunciation House is a non-profit organization that provides a valuable service to our community by caring for those who might otherwise be living on the streets of El Paso. Those who selflessly serve our migrant population deserve our deepest respect, support,
protection, and gratitude. We reject any attempts to scapegoat or persecute them for political expediency. Instead, we affirm our commitment to standing alongside Annunciation House and
all those who champion the cause of justice, compassion, and solidarity in our border community.

In this critical moment, let us reaffirm our shared promise to uphold the identity of our borderlands—a place defined by compassion, fraternity, and radical hope. Together, we will continue to advocate for a future where every individual is treated with the dignity, respect,
and compassion they deserve, regardless of their immigration status
