🚨Live from Fort Worth at the @ALEC_states & National Policy Summit:
Legislators from across the country are in Texas this week to discuss how states are tackling some of the biggest challenges facing America: affordability, education, taxation, public safety etc. and the practical solutions they've passed into law to solve them!🇺🇸 💪
I’ll be on at 4:40 PM CST with @hughhewitt to discuss how Texas is leading the national agenda with recent measurable #txlege reforms that are delivering results right now for families, students, and taxpayers across our great state, and how Texas has been voted as a national model for lowering taxes, expanding school choice, improving virtual education, and strengthening election integrity. Click below to tune in! #ALEC
🚨 Harris County is STILL allowing many citizens to register to vote using private P.O. Boxes, even though my SB 1111 made that illegal four years ago! Clearly the previous county officeholder ignored the law, and that’s why I also passed SB 1933 that gives @TXsecofstate, Jane Nelson, oversight over Harris County elections if necessary.
New data my office pulled from https://t.co/xAURpFRLvt shows active voter registrations at UPS Stores in Harris County 60+ at 1302 Waugh Drive, for example — that can’t be used as a residence address for voter registration and was the basis for these #txlege changes.
Laws like my SB 1933, see attached letter, give those involved in elections the ability to file these complaints to fix these problems within a couple of months, not wasting a couple of years or more on lawsuits. I’ve asked both Harris County Voter Registrar @HCTaxOffice and @TXsecofstate to review the data my office submitted to remove these illegal registrations, as no one lives in a private P.O. Box.
New Harris Tax Assessor Collector @ElectAnnetteR says she’ll comply with the law. GOOD, because we’ve seen what enforcing voter roll maintenance leads to — Voter Rolls with Integrity the public can trust!

GOOD NEWS! @LULAC’s lawsuit against my Voter Integrity bill #SB1111, on motion by @TXAG was THROWN OUT by 5th Circuit Court for OBVIOUS “lack of standing.” @HoustonChron (https://t.co/XAYsw0pqBP) Voter roll clean-up start post Nov. 8th, as no one LIVES in a 2x3 P.O. Box! #txlege
IN CASE YOU MISSED HOW DISRESPECTFUL LINA AND ELLIS ARE TO THE ONES IN CHARGE OF KEEPING US SAFE… HERE YOU GO. NOW GO VOTE ACCORDINGLY #FireLinaHidalgo
DISCUSSION OVER! Harris County Property Taxpayers WIN! And will save a quarter Billion dollars!! Kudos to Commissioners @RJackCagle and @TomSRamsey2 for their Proactive stance against Leftist Progressive Majority’s 10.8% property tax revenue increase. @TPPF#txlege@jen_rice_
Read presser: @TXsecofstate audit div Harris County election audit ltr on the MASSIVE breach of chain-of-custody! Makes Harris co. Aug lawsuit on “randomness”of 2022 audit really “frivolous” as they clearly broke Federal and State record retention laws! #txlege@tppf@Heritage
Proactive stance by Harris Co Commissioners @RJackCagle & @TomSRamsey2, will save Taxpayers 1/4 of a Billion $ in year of record appraisal increases! They’re speaking UP for Taxpayers like Brazos Co Ford & Aldrich stopping double digit PTax hike using NNR Tax Rate! @TPPF#txlege
Harris Co Constables, et al & Public turned out in 100s to say "STOP Defunding" law enforcement to Comm Court on agenda item by DA @kimoggforda! Judge @LinaHidalgoTX said she came against Dr's advise & left in <1 hr to "Boo-Birds" that indicates lots of folks coming back in 2wks!
Judge @LinaHidalgoTX don’t try to "compel" anyone, try telling the “truth” that there’s NO "deficit" because of Property Tax Rates! Using Harris Co no-new-revenue-tax-rate Hospital District gets $20M MORE, so Lina where's a $45 Million "deficit"? NO Where! See chart #txlege@tppf
Enormous increases in Harris County Crime statistics since 2016. They have exploded since Co Criminal Courts turned over to Leftist Progressive Judges! Great meeting at Town Lake @SarahSingleton in SD7 to tell everyone to vote Republican up & down the Ballot, 1, 1, 1…@TexasGOP
I had the chance to join the Fraud Fighter podcast to talk about what I have seen as a prosecutor and judge regarding "expert" witnesses including a favorite story on an expert about Bigfoot...
