Need another reason to get your COVID-19 vaccine before returning to school this fall? How about $5,000 in scholarship funds? Everyone under 18 who gets their shot at an @hcphtx site is eligible to win.

Racism is a problem, economic inequality is a problem, not enough rock n' roll on the radio is a problem. But all those problems will become insignificant when the oceans rise in a way that threatens organised human activity.

Legislation that would restrict transgender students from participating in UIL school sports that match their transgender identity is discriminatory. I encourage #txlege to vote no if this bill makes it to the floor. All children deserve to be loved & supported for who they are.
Cutting voting hours makes it harder to vote.
Gutting vote-by-mail outreach makes it harder to vote.
Eliminating drive-thru voting makes it harder to vote.
Allowing people to film voters casting a ballot makes it harder to vote.
Stop voter suppression, vote NO on SB7.
The Texas Legislature has now passed essentially an abortion ban (even in rape & incenst) AND permit-less carry.
Effectively, pretty much no one can get an abortion, pretty much everyone can open-carry a gun.
Meanwhile... no word on expanding healthcare to the 20% uninsured.
With heavy rains moving through Harris County today, remember, *never* drive into high water. Do your part to not put yourself or first responders at risk. Some roads will likely flood as they convey water to bayous and channels. Please watch the forecast before heading out.
We're facing multiple crises in Texas. 20% of Texans are uninsured. Our energy grid is hopelessly vulnerable.
So what’s the focus for next week in the Texas Legislature?... Essentially banning abortion, even in cases of rape and incest. Get your priorities in line, y'all.
