I saw something CRAZY today in our SW Austin neighborhood… someone was possibly getting a speeding ticket. It’s the first time I’ve seen anyone getting a ticket in Austin in years. Years!

… either as an insert with the directories as they’re shipped/delivered to you or in a mass email. Thank you for your patience… hoping to start fulfilling orders by Friday or Monday.

There are still two House committee clerks that haven’t been named, and at least two House chiefs of staff who haven’t been hired, but I’ll send those names to everyone who bought a directory as soon as I can…

The 2023 Capitol Crowd directories went to the printer today! Sir Speedy in downtown Austin has printed every single directory since we started publishing them in 2007 and they do a great job.

In his first term as Lt. Governor, Bob Bullock had Congresswoman Jordan come speak to the Senate staff about ethics in the Senate chamber. One line stuck with me (in her booming voice): YOU ARE THE SENATOR. #txlege

Inheriting old Austin matchbooks may now be cooler than silverware and crystal.

Granite Cafe, Threadgill’s and Hut’s… Austin of the ‘80s and the ‘90s was pretty fabulous. Thank God we still have Kerbey Lanes!

Found a bunch of old matchbooks tonight. Who remembers the Quorum Club on the top floor of what is now the Moody Bank Building at 15th and Guadalupe?

If anybody who works at the Capitol notices that I’m checking out your LinkedIn profile… I promise I’m not stalking you, just double-checking the spelling of your name #txlege

Man, if this happens, John Eastman will never make it into the Lewisville High School (Lewisville, Texas) Hall of Fame.

Not a bad list for the #txlege. Highly recommend reading “The Gay Place” too. Some things stay the same at the Capitol, no matter what decade we’re in.

Had a long, leisurely lunch with my two besties from the 71st Legislature R.S. - that was 1989, folks! Treasure the friends you make each session and hold them tight! #txlege

Spent a little time walking around the E2 level of the Capitol today, working on the 2023 Capitol Crowd directories. Got some hugs from longtime friends and met some “newbie” staffers. They’re going to have so much fun/learn so much this session! #txlege

Excellent advice for newbies and veterans at the Capitol #txlege

The #txlege session begins tomorrow and this will be my 13th legislative session since getting involved in Texas politics.
I'd like to provide some advice to the staffers based on my experiences and based on what an opposition research will look for during campaign season.

Just to make this as clear as possible.
What verification means now: We've confirmed this person or company is who they say they are.
What verification will mean in the future: I have $8.
Elon could still back out of this, but that's the fundamental change that he's proposing.
