@RepLynnStucky Appropriations. Without a doubt, it’s the most powerful committee in the House.

[Michael Simpson @MichaelSimpson]

Great getting to meet with Rep. @tparker63 today. Thanks so much for your time, dedication and to service to Texas! #txlege

[Texas Kids Matter @TXKidsMatter]

Senator, we believe your constituents deserve an answer to this question. @SenJaneNelson

[Michael Simpson @MichaelSimpson]

@SenJaneNelson Thank you, @SenJaneNelson. Could you also introduce some legislation to restore Medicaid funding so tragedies like this don’t happen anymore? https://t.co/HLwoyMD5HW

[Texas Kids Matter @TXKidsMatter]

Thank you for your support @RepMattKrause. These kids need leaders like you. #FixThisMess because #TXKidsMatter

[Matt Krause @MattKrauseTX]

Had the chance to meet little Tina and Estella tonight. They are both @fragilechildTX. One can’t breathe w/o help and the other can hardly swallow or eat because of digestive issues. For the sake of these precious girls and hundreds of others, we have to #fixthismess! #txlege
