🇺🇸 On #VeteransDay I’m grateful for those who served—whose courage gives us peace to dream & build. Today I’m thinking about the future of movement: bullet trains like Korea’s, linking San Antonio, Austin, Dallas & Houston. Fast, clean, uniting Texas. 🚄 #TexasHighSpeedRail

They caved. 8 Senators chose saving their jobs over saving lives. Millions lost leverage for health care so they could coast to re-election. #PrimaryThem

Grateful to the @NAACP chapter at Texas State for hosting last night's forum. Their century-long fight for justice continues today - in housing, wages, & representation. The work isn't done, but together we can build a fairer San Marcos. chasenorris.org

Billionaires have taken over Texas and taken over America — but together, we can take power back for working people.

1/ 🌈 Pride is more than a parade. It’s protest. It began in 1969 at Stonewall when queer & trans people resisted police violence. One year later, they marched for rights & visibility. ✊ #Pride

I just went on Fox News to tell the truth about the redistricting power grab in Texas.

I asked a simple question: “If Republican policies are so popular, why do they need to redraw these maps; why not run on their policies?”

He refused to answer — and cut the interview early.

This morning, I had breakfast at Rogelio’s with Lisa Young, the Executive Director of the Hays County Food Bank. Over coffee & huevos rancheros, she shared the incredible work they’re doing to feed over 24,000 people every year in our community. 🧵

Flaco Jiménez didn’t just play the accordion—he made it dance, cry, & sing across borders. From San Antonio to the world, he brought Tejano soul to the spotlight & proved our culture belongs on every stage. ¡Gracias, Flaco, por todo! 🎶🪗 #TexMex #Legend #FlacoJimenez

Texas isn’t a red state. It’s a 47–53 state. Nearly half of Texans vote Democrat—but Republicans just proposed a congressional map giving themselves 30 of 38 seats. That’s 79% of the power with barely 53% of the vote. 🧵

🏞️ The cleanest river in Texas flows through San Marcos.
It is the Cleanest because we choose to protect it.
The San Marcos River stays clear year-round thanks to a powerful coalition of science, stewardship & policy.
Here's how we keep it beautiful—and how we go even further. 🌊🧵

He circled the globe alone. We still follow his flight path into the future. 🌍 #OTD #AviationHistory

In 2013, the Supreme Court gutted the Voting Rights Act.
Chief Justice Roberts claimed “our country has changed.”
But when they threw away the umbrella, the rain came fast.
🧵Here’s what happened—and why we must restore voting rights.
