First confirmed U.S. case of New World Screwworm found today in a calf in Zavala County, about 100 miles southwest of San Antonio.

We are working with the @TAHC, @USDA and partners statewide to respond.

[Nate Sheets for Texas Agriculture Commissioner @natesheetsforTX]

The New World #Screwworm sounds like something from a horror movie but it's real. It threatens livestock, pets, wildlife, and in rare cases even people. A Texas outbreak could cost billions and hit ranchers hard.

Now, @USDA has confirmed a case in South Texas. This is no longer a future concern - it is an agricultural emergency that requires an immediate, coordinated response.

While Sid Miller tours the state with my communist opponent Clayton Tucker, sullying his Republican legacy, Texas agriculture is facing a very real threat that demands immediate attention from actual leaders. Clayton and Sid need not apply. Neither is serious. Neither is ready.

Texans deserve an Agriculture Commissioner focused on protecting our farmers, ranchers, livestock, and food supply rather than chasing headlines.

As Agriculture Commissioner, I will take threats like this seriously, act before crises reach our doorstep, and ensure Texas is prepared for the challenges ahead. #txlege

[NBA Coaches Assoc. @NBA_Coaches]

The membership of the National Basketball Coaches Association joins the NBA family in mourning the passing of legendary Head Coach and Hall of Famer, Rick Adelman.

Rick Adelman coached in the NBA for 29 years, serving as a Head Coach for 23 seasons with the Portland Trail Blazers, Golden State Warriors, Sacramento Kings, Houston Rockets and Minnesota Timberwolves. Over his coaching career, Rick won 1,042 games (10th all-time), was inducted into the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame in 2021 and received the NBCA Chuck Daly Lifetime Achievement Award in 2023. Coach Adelman also enjoyed an eight-year NBA playing career with the San Diego Rockets, Portland Trail Blazers, Chicago Bulls, New Orleans Jazz, and Kansas City-Omaha Kings.

Adelman will be remembered not only as a coach and a player, but also as a mentor to so many in the basketball community. Rick was a husband to Mary Kay for 56 years; father to Kathy, RJ, Laura, David, Caitlin, and Patrick; and a grandfather of twelve. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the entire Adelman family during this difficult time.
