I've officially filed for re-election to represent House District 134.
People are tired of politicians bending the knee to Trump instead of making their lives better.
Now more than ever, I'm ready to keep fighting for everyday Texans. Let's get to work!

Today, we honor the courage, sacrifice, and unwavering service of our nation’s veterans.
Their commitment to protecting our freedoms is a debt we can never fully repay.
To all who have served and continue to serve — thank you. We are forever grateful.

Last night's election results sent a clear message:
Democrats are the ones standing between freedom and the ones trying to take it away — and voters agree.
There is no time like now to fight for the future of our state and our nation.

I'm at the East Wing of the White House — where I used to work.
This is supposed to be the people’s house, but Trump just destroyed the public entrance.
It’s not just a renovation. It’s a message: this country is his, and the rest of us don’t belong.

This week, Trump suggested domestic violence isn’t a crime, calling it “a little fight.”
The president is insulting survivors who sacrificed everything to stand up and speak out.
Minimizing violence to boost your image isn’t leadership — it’s cowardice.

Texas Republicans are forcing a vote on their rigged election maps.
If they knew they could win the election — they wouldn’t be stealing 5 congressional seats.
This is a blatant, racist power grab.

Governor Abbott just said he’s got “bullets in his belt” that he’s ready to use against Texas Democrats.
As a prosecutor, I’ve had criminals threaten my life.
I never thought I’d see the day that the Governor of Texas threatens my life.
Governor Abbott, retract your statement.

BREAKING: The House just passed the Life of the Mother Act — a bill I helped lead to ensure Texas doctors can provide lifesaving care without fear of prosecution.
After Roe fell, women paid the price.
This is progress — and we’ll keep fighting.

The Texas Miracle doesn’t happen by accident.
Smart policy. Free markets. Economic mobility.
While GOP extremism tanks the national economy, I’m focused on keeping Texas open for business – and making sure that opportunity reaches everyone.

Texas taxpayer dollars shouldn’t fund out-of-state private schools.
I offered a simple amendment to ban tax dollars going out of state — and it was voted it down.
Texans deserve better than party politics getting in the way of common sense solutions.

When kids are getting sick from diseases we’ve already beaten, it’s not just bad policy –– it’s a moral failure.
Texas can’t afford to play politics with public health.
It’s time to put science, facts, and our children first.

I just asked the question everyone’s thinking: Does HB 44 enforce the 1925 abortion ban?
Texas Alliance for Life said it themselves –– this bill doesn’t change that law “one iota.”
HB 44 is a rare chance to give doctors the clarity they need to save women’s lives.

Pregnant Texans are in danger.
HB 44 is vital to let doctors provide care without fear — and protect mothers from unnecessary death.
We have an opportunity to make meaningful change today, but we won’t stop until these bans are repealed.

Too many young Texans are being jailed instead of given a chance to recover.
Our outdated laws keep youth struggling with addiction out of drug courts, cutting off their chance at recovery.
H.B. 1831 changes that –– giving more young Texans a second chance at a better future.

Summer Willis, a Texan and sexual assault survivor, ran 29 marathons to raise awareness and demand change.
I joined her final run — and her call for action.
That’s why I filed House Bill 324 –– to hold perpetrators accountable and strengthen support for survivors.

For years, I’ve fought to ensure Texas doctors can act amid pregnancy complications.
I’m proud to joint author HB 44 – a bipartisan bill to ensure women get the care they need without delay.
No doctor should have to choose between the law and the life of the mother.

I've seen firsthand what happens when public schools lose funding –– just look at Houston ISD.
Now they want vouchers to drain even more money from public schools, create problems just to sell an imperfect solution.
Texans deserve better than a scam that only helps the wealthy.

Misinformation is putting the health of every Texan in jeopardy.
Vaccine exemptions have skyrocketed, growing from 2,300 in 2004 to over 118,000 today.
The result? A weakened public health system and children's' lives at risk.
It's time we value truth over politics.

Reckless cuts threaten lifesaving treatments, medical research, and Texas’ future in innovation.
Abbott must use his influence to restore NIH funding now.

3 years ago, @GregAbbott_TX banned abortion in Texas — with no exceptions for the health of the mother.
Texas women were robbed of their freedom. Some were even robbed of their lives.
I just filed HB 1493 to ensure medically necessary exceptions for this dangerous abortion ban.
