If our vote didn’t matter or count, GOP wouldn’t be trying so hard to undermine your ability to elect a candidate of your choice. SCOTUS is giving state legislatures like TX the right to cheat & rig maps in their favor. We must organize & fight back at the ballot box. #txlege

formal petition for progressives to stop using "Black and brown" (esp if you're not going to capitalize the Brown)!!! i know it rolls off the tongue, but many latinos are not "brown". it's lazy and does a disservice to our community to not label our ethnicity correctly. #txlege

Today SCOTUS ruled in Louisiana v. Callais, striking down Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, the nation’s safeguard against racially discriminatory maps & voting laws. This marks a sweeping retreat from protections that have shielded voters for nearly 60 years. #txlege
Thanks for this. We’ll be on the lookout for similar misleading mislabeling here. #txlege

Today, SCOTUS gutted the Voting Rights Act. Now Republicans can redraw Congressional and #txlege maps next session without regard to minority representation. They just need to say that it’s partisan. The only thing that can stop them is the election in November.
Let that sink in. In Texas we had: explicit statements about race-based goals, a DOJ letter targeting districts by race, and a detailed ruling from a bipartisan panel. SCOTUS still said it wasn’t enough.
FATTY BOOM BATTY. #TXLEGE
Thank you so much @danielledsouzag for having me on your podcast! We had a great time discussing Republican Priorities, the duties of a Vice Chair, and how my family ended up in politics! It is an honor to be in the fight with you for the great state of Texas.

Well, I've just finished the first 6 hours of testimony from what appears to be 18 in total. But those first 6 hours delivered on 4/27 are from the investigators appointed by #TxLege's General Investigating Committee—independent of any of the ongoing civil litigation. /1

Texas Lt Gov Dan Patrick has released interim charges for the Texas Senate, and of course the thc is on the legislative menu. If you thought he was going to leave the cannabis issue alone, you haven’t been paying attention. See yall at the #txlege

March 31 is the real deadline. New Texas hemp rules kick in statewide, with stricter testing, tighter packaging, higher fees, and more focus on THCA in total THC math. That kind of change hits consumers and small businesses fast.

A supplemental interim charge for House State Affairs was just sent to the committee titled “Protecting Minors on Online Gaming Platforms.” Sounds like it’s aimed at the ongoing Roblox scandal. The gaming company is facing a bevy of lawsuits alleging child endangerment. #txlege
