Glad to see the State & Austin are working to quickly improve safety for those around the Capitol area. Giving time for Mayor as he works to turn around the failed policies of Steve Adler. #txlege

Austin is out of control!! When a constituent of SD30 that I met with is RAPED hours later by a homeless man, this has to end! She came to discuss issues in our community & her life has been changed forever. #txlege kxan.com/news/local/aus

So cool to swing a cricket 🏏 bat for the 1st time & hit the ball. Thanks to Tony Singh & Little Elm for raising $6,500 for the police & fire departments. It’s an honor to represent a community that gives so much back. #txlege

After being raped she was had to sit in the Dell Seton emergency room waiting on a rape kit for 13 HOURS!! It wasn’t till a state official found out & made calls that one was there in 15 minutes. The addl trauma caused by Dell is unacceptable! #txlege

Mayor the lawlessness has to end. He had prior violent crimes as well as a long rap sheet. People around the state have to come to the Capitol to petition their government. They should be as safe as home. If Austin can’t do it the State needs to create a district.

Eventually, the State brought Caleb's abuser to justice, but sadly Caleb is still missing. Texas has not updated child pornography laws in 34 years. It is time we do so that we can better protect the most vulnerable in our society - our children.

I filed the bill in honor of Caleb Diehl from Nocona, who was reported missing on April 1, 2015. After his disappearance, an investigation uncovered that Caleb was abused by his part-time employer, who had prior allegations of aggravated sexual assault of a child.

Today Caleb's Law, SB 129, was heard in Criminal Justice. SB 129 would upgrade TX's outdated child pornography laws to reflect current technologies & criminal trends, & ensure child predators can be charged with a 1st-degree felony without prior conviction. #txlege

I am proud to be working with on legislation to establish a Texas Mental Healthcare Enterprise Fund. Our state is 5,000 mental health professionals short, but SB 1282/HB 4154 provides a solution to ensure TX can close that gap & provide care for all Texans. #txlege

Yesterday my area manager Paul's daughter, Lily, served as a Senate Page. Lily wanted to use her spring break to visit the Capitol & learn more about the Legislature & TX history. She assisted me in co-authoring one of Senator bills & was a huge help! #txlege

187 yrs ago, after a 13-day fight, 200 brave Texans fell to Santa Anna's forces bringing an end to the Battle of the Alamo. Their bravery & courage inspired the Texan army to fight against the Mexican army, leading to a victory over Santa Anna at the Battle of San Jacinto #txlege

Be aware: when you insert card into ATM your ability to transact terminates when you remove your card. But when using “tap” feature the ATM doesn’t know you’ve finished, potentially leaving your account open.
