NEW: Texas counties receive subpoenas for voters’ records from the Department of Homeland Security #txlege www.votebeat.org/texas/2026/0...
From school board trustee to State Board of Education member all the way to Congress, I’m proud to support some incredible candidates this morning. All right here in HD 47! #txlege
The Texas Farm Bureau AGFUND endorsement reflects the work we’ve done supporting Texas agriculture.
Including legislation improving pest notification coordination with Texas A&M AgriLife Extension.
Grateful for their trust.

New, free piece is out! In it, I discuss how the Texas GOP is put into a conundrum by Paxton’s nomination.

Charley Crockett, bringing the Artemis II crew home. He may not be able to get into Canada, but his tunes are over the moon!
Like @lmcgaughy.bsky.social and @evanasmith.bsky.social always say-there’s always a Texas angle. #txlege
✅Equality Texas Action is proud to endorse Venton Jones for House District 100!
📢Jones is the first HIV-positive member of the #TXLege and one of only three Black openly LGBTQIA+ members of the Texas House. We need strong allies like Jones representing the needs of everyday Texans!
It was a meaningful opportunity for the City of Mesquite delegation, Mesquite Independent School District, Mesquite Chamber and Leadership Mesquite to advocate for the 152,000 residents across Dallas and Kaufman counties who proudly call Mesquite home.

Now coping by blasting all too well ten minute version in my ears to try to blot out the TX House state affairs hearing on data centers. Just a lot of self congratulatory back slapping by pasty white men with podcasts. #txlege

Sen. Kolkhorst made good points in the hearing on program integrity in Medicaid & other services.
✅ Texas has strong anti-fraud measures in place and has not seen the problems that popped up in other states.
✅ “It’s not the recipients. Many times, it’s the providers.”

Pleease! Lt. Gov. talking out his ASS-for to steer house campaign donations & to F’ Dustin & then when “IT” doesn't happen, in his best bankruptcy talk radio voice, to tell everyone he single handed SAVED the Texas House-when he didn’t do a thing. Stay off the Red Carpet. #txlege

Grateful to celebrate Equality Texas at this year's Love Equality event.
For 50 years, they've championed LGBTQ+ rights, fought discrimination, and advanced equality across Texas.
Thank you to EQTX for inviting Team Johnson to support the incredible work they're doing statewide. #TXLege #SD16
We must prioritize safety to protect lives in our state. #truckingsafety #saferoads #txlege
Texas is giving data centers more than $1 billion in tax breaks each year
#Texans: call your #txlege reps/senators. Billionaires don’t need our tax money to steal our water and electricity. Let them go elsewhere. Make them pay their fair share.
TX HHS hearing today on fraud and abuse in Medicare and Medicaid and patting themselves on the back for the great job they're doing taking care of the people that need these funds. HHS and all HHS agencies are under sunset review this cycle, w/ Kolkhorst as Chair. #txlege
Two months ago, a post from Greg Abbott of Texas "keeping Texas affordable" with low gas prices etc etc.
Someone ask Abbott how this "Keeping Texas Affordable" campaign is going - looks iffy ...
[That post is just 2 months old]
#txlege
I'm grateful to have added my voice alongside so many others fighting to protect the lands of our state.
To disturb Big Bend is to risk real consequences: damage to wildlife and fragile ecosystems, and the reshaping of a landscape generations of Texans have come to know and love. #TXLege #SD16

I’ve been working on this in Texas for several years & believe it is the right answer for #txlege to use weight-based user fees to cover the costs of driving.
We got the Safe Texas Streets & Sidewalks Fund drafted as a resolution to let Texas voters decide this, but couldn’t get it filed last year.
