The story of Texas has always been one of organized people fighting organized money.
For too long, the Ultra Wealthy have used their wealth to buy political influence, crush family farms and small businesses, and put corporate profits ahead of working Texans.
But Texans got organized, made history, and now we're taking the fight against corporate monopolies straight to Austin.

Today I filed bills to expand Medicaid, allow Texans to register to vote online, legalize marijuana and keep small businesses open after disasters.
These have been my priorities for years. This session is our chance to finally deliver them. #txlege
It looks like we have two bills called the Texas Regulation of Cannabis Act HB362 by @BucyForTexas and HB369 by @moodyforelpaso. Both bills essentially legalize adult use for 21+ and end possession arrests, allow for home cultivation, and establish industry standards for commercial sales.
The 2028 ballot will feature 8 Texas Senate seats currently held by the GOP, which has a 19-12 Senate majority.
Dems would need 4 flips for a majority. Here's how those 8 districts voted in #TXSEN & #TXGOV, per @theoelections data. Talarico carried 5 of them, Hinojosa carried 2:
Today, I filed my first 3 bills of the 90th Legislative Session:
✅ Expand Medicaid
✅ Implement Online Voter Registration
✅ Reverse 30 years of Republican voter suppression
Texans made their priorities clear. Now it’s our job to deliver.
Oscar De Los Santos has made history as Arizona's first openly LGBTQ+ House Speaker. The son of Mexican immigrants, De Los Santos is a former sixth-grade teacher and Rhodes Scholar who co-chaired the successful campaign effort to flip control of the chamber. He will become Arizona's first Democratic House Speaker in 60 years #NOH8
Lots of Mexicans in the comments are missing the point. The fact that this segment was on a morning show is novel. It just would NOT happen in the US. México is ahead of the US on things like this.
A straight cis ally was injected with PrEP on a National Morning show in Mexico. Imagine if it had been done in the US? It's incredible, and I'm happy to see it. Public health is universal.

Hey, Supreme Court, this type of shit is why the Voting Rights Act should still be a law.
Republicans tried to boot all poor people off the voter rolls in Mississippi right before an election.
@HoustonChron In the 1973 Texas Legislature, three powerhouses from Houston sworn in together as freshman representatives. The last of them may become the Texas House speaker in 2027. #txlege
