From Virginia, to California, what happened across the country started right here in Texas. I’m proud of my colleagues who stood up for Democracy. Help support our Dem members, and send them back to the #txlege! Donate to @TexasHDCC today!

The Texas GOP convention is saying the quiet part out loud. I am a target, I am an enemy because of my faith, my skin and my heritage. They want people to believe people like us are un-American. But we will respond in the most American way possible. We are building a coalition of Texans from all faiths, races, creeds and economic backgrounds to defeat hate at the ballot box this November.

Yes… I was indeed around the corner from the @TexasGOP convention today… to attend the 10 year anniversary of the Greater Houston LGBT Chamber of Commerce luncheon! Great turnout, and wonderful event during #PrideMonth! 🌈

As we learn more about the details surrounding today’s shooting in Midland, we’re thinking of the families of the victims and praying for justice. No community should have to endure this kind of violence.

Texas House Democratic Caucus Chair @GeneforTexas will be in Georgia on Monday for a press conference pushing back on redistricting (for 2028 districts) in that state, per an advisory.
@RepToniRoseTX and Sen. @BorrisLMiles also expected to attend. #txlege

This Women Veterans Day, we're proud to celebrate one of our own. Rep. @JoseyforHD124 is not only a tireless advocate for Texas families — she's the first woman active-duty veteran ever elected to the Texas House. To her and every woman who has served: thank you.

Thank you to the one & only Dr. Richard Murray of @UHouston @hobbyschooluh for coming to my home and discussing the 2026 mid-terms! There’s a reason why almost every elected official, D or R in Harris County was a former student! #txlege

Really enjoyed digging into crucial issues to save our #Democracy at @Netroots_Nation! I spoke on panels about redistricting, fighting fascism, & xenophobia. Great to connect with folks across the country & Texans who made it to the convention!

Government has no place in the personal lives of LGBTQ Texans, and Texas House Democrats are fighting to keep it that way.

First in @TexasTribune: National Democrats @DLCC are looking to flip 12 Texas House seats this cycle in a newly expanded battleground list.
A dozen flips would put Democrats one seat shy of an even split in a chamber they haven't held since 2003. #txlege texastribune.org/2026/06/03/…

Spent the weekend at @TexasHDCC Candidate School with incredible candidates and staffers from across Texas.
The energy was contagious. New friends, old ones, and a mission: flip seats, fight for working families, and help Texas thrive.
November is coming.
