I gave this quote four months ago. Today an administrator in Southlake, Texas advised teachers to give an “opposing” view on the Holocaust. I wish we had been wrong about House Bill 3979.

Republicans have gerrymandered me out of my district. If they think they can keep me off the House floor, they better think again. I’m grateful to everyone urging me to move back to HD50—where I grew up—to run for the seat being vacated by my friend Rep Israel. I’m in.

TX Senate just finished a strong conservative session. But more needs to be done. Senate added felony penalties for illegal voting, but the House cut to a misdemeanor. House needs to pass an election forensic audit bill. I support
@GovAbbott calling us back to pass both.#txlege -
Ok!…Texans don’t have to register to carry a gun? But we do have to register to vote; in fact, we have to register quite carefully and at risk of criminal penalties if we make any mistakes on the paperwork, etc….(?)

I am here to fight against the anti-trans bill HB25. It's an attack on transgender, intersex, and non-binary youth at a fragile point in life. We should fix our energy grid and fight Covid-19, instead of dealing with a made up non-issue that hurts our precious kids.

Texas Republicans have passed their anti-trans bill. Over and over Christians used scripture to justify bullying trans kids. I told them in my faith, God is non-binary.

The Texas congressional map passed yesterday is so skewed that it would fail 4 out of 4 test elections under the Freedom to Vote Act and be enjoined from use pending full litigation. (For that to happen, of course, Congress would actually need to pass FTVA.)

BREAKING: Texas Legislature approves new congressional redistricting map & sends it to Gov. Abbott (R) for signing. The map adds no new majority-minority districts, despite TX gaining 2 seats & 95% of the state's population growth being fueled by people of color. #txlege -

I've always been proud to be

There is no “both sides” to the Holocaust. These were my great aunts who were killed in the Holocaust. I will always speak out in their memory. Has
@GovAbbott or anyone from#txlege denounced the comments by the Texas school administrator? pic.twitter.com/il9xETUILZ

I am sad but not defeated. This narrative doesn’t define my child and their worth.
