THBC has filed a lawsuit to challenge rules that threaten compliant businesses and overstep legal authority. These rules don’t just tighten regulation–they rewrite the law. This is about more than hemp. It’s about accountability, fair regulation & protecting Texas business.

This is Texas under the GOP. A west Texas Wellhead has been blown out for years, creating a highly toxic lake ( Lake Boehmer). The toxic water is from fracking in nearby wells. The Texas Railroad Commission refuses to do anything about it. #txlege

Dan Patrick’s likely Dem opponent in November is out with another strong message in support of hemp and broader cannabis reform. #txlege
They lost the vote, so they changed the rules. Dan Patrick’s DSHS just banned hemp through a backdoor agency ruling, overriding your legislature and your voice. I won’t stand for it, and neither should you. As Lt. Governor, I will put the people back in charge. Watch this, join

The last thing West Texas wants is the federal government coming in and expanding control over vast swaths of land. That’s why I’m introducing the No FED in West Texas Act this week — legislation to prohibit a future Democrat administration from trying to take West Texas land
Agree, my understanding was the victim did not want to end up back on the stand with potential acquittals after the 7-5 split. For healing they wanted him to admit it, & they agreed to the terms. Everything you mentioned needs to be addressed & revoking his bar license. #TXLEGE
Texas lawmakers have officially announced next week's investigative hearings on the July 4 floods. House/Senate panels to meet jointly, hearing from investigators on Monday and taking other invited testimony Tuesday. No public testimony—common for an investigative cmte. #txlege

I agree. Parents truly sacrifice to put their children in the school that's right for them. This will help them. However, there are failing public schools and this will also help those students. It's all so wonderful!! Thank you #txlege! 🍎❣️🍎
It shouldn't matter where a kid attended school before they apply for school choice. But just in case you care, the MAJORITY of school choice awards sent today are going to kids who were not previously attending private schools.
I know SPED students who will finally get the services they need and I am beyond thrilled. Parents have really struggled with this and relief is here. Thank you #txlege! 🍎❣️🍎 #SchoolChoice #TEFA
Do you remember when the fear mongers said special needs kids wouldn't get school choice? 42,000 special needs students and their siblings were awarded school choice opportunities today. Texas is busting the school choice MYTHS in real time.

Texas greenlit Ten Commandments in every public school. Same state cutting ed budgets and fighting voter protections. You don't mandate God on the wall while defunding the classroom. @kendricklamar's 'Alright' did more for Black faith than this will. #txlege

Education Freedom Accounts are being rolled out in Texas and the critics were as wrong about how it would be used as they were about whether there was demand for the program. #txlege
When you talk to real parents, you understand how and why these statistics are true. #SchoolChoice works, it is needed and the majority of Texas parents want this. Today is a wonderful day for Texas families that needed options. #txlege THANK YOU! 🍎❣️🍎
🚨School choice opponents are crying today! OFFICIAL demographic information for the students who have received TEFAs (so far) is out. - Majority low-income students - Majority special needs students - Majority SWITCHERS from public schools The fearmongers' myths are BUSTED!

Battle erupts over home insurance payouts
Home insurance industry faces scrutiny as critics and insurers clash over “closed without payment” claim data and what it really means.
Texas doesn’t have state income tax. What it DOES have is a property tax bill that resets every year based on whatever your home is “worth now.” Mine went up $3,800 in a single year. I didn’t get a raise. My house didn’t get bigger. The state just decided it needed more
