Republicans currently have an 88-62 majority in the Texas House and have controlled the chamber since 2003. Dems would need to flip 14 seats to reach a majority (two more than the 12 they picked up in the 2018 wave)…. 4/8/26 x.com/jaspscherer/...

More than 300 people gathered at Northside Drafthouse last night in #HD70 with Beto O’Rourke, Gina Hinojosa, and the Richardson Area Democrats. I was proud to offer closing remarks to a room filled with neighbors who care deeply about the direction of our state and our country.

Honored and deeply grateful to CCDP for the Ann Richards Voice of Courage Award. Ann Richards believed leadership meant telling the truth, standing your ground, and never forgetting who you serve. To receive an award in her name, from people who keep showing up means more than I can put into words.
