Thank you for trying to bring AFFORDABLE electricity back in Texas
#Bigelectric is making billions while ordinary Texans pay the price.
Texans NEED electricity to survive. We must have affordable electricity.
Please DO NOT back down. A rate freeze is a good start, but it's time to start undoing electricity deregulation in Texas!
Texans are paying BILLIONS extra to Wall Street just to survive!
Allow co-ops and local municipal utilities to compete. Pass it in the Legislature and dare the GOP to block it in the Senate!

I know the GOP is probably thinking that Texas will flip back red ๐คฎin four years, but someone should tell them that ONCE YOU GO BLUE YOU NEVER GO BACK.
(Just ask Georgia, lol.)
I was right. It's @SusieWiles
Susie if I absolutely had to (like being forced to) (like being tickled until I blurted out a name) choose who to keep or fire and the two choices were you or Stephen Miller, I would choose to keep you.

I love everything you are doing and want to do. But please don't forget the economy. Almost all elections are about the economy! This election was about the economy.
The big reason many independents switched sides is due to the nationwide affordability crisis.
Democrats MUST try to address and rollback the Electricity and Insurance Deregulation that Republicans crammed down our throats.
Texans need electricity to survive! Texans need insurance to have homes!
These should both be EMERGENCY items next session.
Texans cannot afford to keep sending billions to #Bigelectric and #WallStreet
Please.

THIS JUST IN: Democrats have FLIPPED the Texas State Board of Education!
This is a monumental win for Texas students, families, and the entire education community in our great state.
Congratulations to our incredible candidates!
That is very important.
But PLEASE don't forget that 'It's the economy. It's still the economy. It's ALWAYS the economy.
We must make it cheaper for Texans to 'live'. Cheap enough to just 'exist' is not enough!
Start with repealing or reforming electricity deregulation. That has been a nightmare for Texas families
People in Texas need electricity to survive! Texans should NOT have to pay billions to Wall Street for the electricity they need to survive!
Growing up working on my familyโs ranch in Lampasas, I never imagined Iโd one day be your Texas Agriculture Commissioner.
Tonight, we made history. For the first time in 40 years, Texans elected a Democrat to this office, and we did it together.
To every Democrat, Republican, and Independent who believed in this campaign, thank you. You proved that when Texans stand together to protect our land, our water, and our communities from the Greedy Few, organized people can beat organized money.
