Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 26/09/2026We stood together to demand the release of Texas’ delayed maternal mortality report. Nearly 4 out of 5 pregnancy-related deaths are preventable, and Black women continue to face the highest rates. We need this report to understand why women are dying and build legislation that saves lives. 230
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 20/09/2026This happened in our community, in broad daylight. We deserve answers. 063

Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 15/09/2026In a world that feels so divided, be like Senator Andy Kim. Fight hard. Stand your ground. Keep showing up. And never lose your decency or your belief in people. It was beyond amazing to meet the Senator, someone I’ve looked up to for years. A mentor and the kind of public servant I strive to be. 062
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 08/09/2026Thank you to Austin PBS for having me on to talk about what’s at stake for our community. I’m committed to fully funding our public schools, protecting a woman’s right to make her own healthcare decisions, and putting our community first at the Capitol. 110
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 07/09/2026The weekend wasn’t a gift. The eight-hour workday wasn’t a gift. Overtime pay wasn’t a gift. Safer workplaces and better wages weren’t gifts. Working people organized, fought for them, and won them. 111
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 07/09/2026Moderating a panel at Blue Action SW with Congressional Candidates Caitlin Rourk & Tanya Lloyd. Healthcare and affordability are top of mind for residents in HD 47 and across their congressional districts. Up and down the ballot, we are focused on kitchen table issues that impact families every day. 020
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 28/08/2026I loved visiting UA Local 286 and seeing their apprenticeship program in action! Good-paying jobs, hands-on training, and a real path to a career. This is what investing in Texas workers looks like. I’m proud to always stand with our unions and working families. #txlege 061
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 24/08/2026Chair @kenmartin.bsky.social ’s words about my race mean so much. And he is right. Hate may be loud, but it is not who most of us are. When we tolerate it or use it to gain power, we risk losing something much harder to regain: our dignity. 120
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 23/08/2026Happy Pride, Austin! Our state is beautiful because of the people who call it home. So much joy, so much love, and so much to be proud of. #txlege 000

Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 03/08/2026Bad policies have real consequences. We can’t keep going down this path. As AI data centers rapidly expand and our water and public lands face growing pressure, Texas needs leaders who think ahead instead of waiting for a crisis. I’m honored to earn the endorsement of the Sierra Club. 152
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 02/08/2026Block walk Saturday! One team, one goal: elect Democrats up and down the ballot. #txlege 053
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 01/08/2026A year ago today, Texans waited more than 13 hours to speak against mid-decade redistricting. Many never got the chance. Now we’re living with the consequences. In HD 47, we’re split across four congressional districts. 161
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 27/07/2026Today I joined Texans calling for accountability on data centers, and today the Texas Senate Finance Committee is taking a closer look at the billions in tax incentives our state gives them. Texans deserve to know what we’re getting in return. Our grid, our water, & our tax dollars matter. #txlege 031

Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 12/07/2026Come block walk with me! Send me a DM, shoot me an email, or just reach out. We have some great candidates who need our help this November. Let’s go! #txlege 092
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 12/07/2026At a vigil for Lorenzo Salgado Araujo tonight, the grief was impossible to ignore. One speaker said, “When one family suffers, we all suffer from the injustice.” Lorenzo’s family deserves the truth. ICE owes the family a full and transparent account of what happened. #txlege 1165
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 11/07/2026Last night, right here in the district, I spoke with parents and students about the TEA takeover, school funding, and the STAAR test. Thank you for having me. 110
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 08/07/2026The Salgado Araujo family deserves answers. Our communities deserve accountability, transparency, and respect. 065
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 08/07/2026💥We’re less than four months from Election Day. This is a fun reminder that Democratic campaigns aren’t glamorous, they’re powered by us. Volunteer for a Dem candidate. Donate if you can. Block walk. Phone bank. Talk to neighbors. Find your precinct chair. We can create change! #texasdemocrats 075
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 01/07/2026Our big Finance deadline is done! Thank you, we hit our goal! In b/w call time, I got to support Sen. Rehmet, Heather Jefts, & Sarah Eckhardt because this fight is bigger than any one campaign. As we head toward Nov., I hope you’ll join me in supporting not just one campaign, but a few. #txlege 072
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 30/06/2026Midnight is our end-of-quarter fundraising deadline. If you’ve been waiting for the right time to chip in, this is it. Every contribution helps us keep building a campaign that fights for all Texans. Thank you! Link: bit.ly/Poojasethi 041
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 28/06/2026The Texas GOP calls our platform “radical.” The @texasdemocrats.bsky.social calls it fighting for affordability, public schools, healthcare, good jobs, and freedom. Our fight is for every Texan. #txlege 2125
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 23/06/2026So excited to be one of the keynote speakers at the Lady Bird Breakfast during the @texasdemocrats.bsky.social convention! Looking forward to an inspiring week with so many incredible leaders, advocates, and changemakers. See you there! #txlege 081
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 21/06/2026Today we painted hearts beside Austin’s rainbow crosswalks. The Governor may remove the crosswalks, but he cannot remove the values they represent: inclusion & respect for every member of our community. Proud to stand with community leaders in choosing love over division. #txlege 0226
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 19/06/2026Juneteenth is one of the most important days in American history & a powerful reminder that freedom must be fought for, protected, and extended to everyone. Black history is American history. Grateful to spend the morning in community and hand out stickers to our future leaders. #txlege #juneteenth 182
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 19/06/2026Join me at 10:00 AM at Rosewood Neighborhood Park for the Juneteenth Parade as we celebrate freedom, community, and one of the most important days in our nation’s history. Hope to see you tomorrow! 031
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 14/06/2026"They won't go any further." That's what people said before Roe was overturned. The 2026 Texas GOP platform proves they're not done. Women's rights matter. Families matter. Freedom matters. Pay attention. Speak up. Stay engaged. Because they're not done, and neither are we. #txlege 11916
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 13/06/2026“I cannot say whether or not Anthony was acting in self-defense, but I can say that, while living in a country that has made the likes of Kyle Rittenhouse famous, I understand the Black community’s frustration.” www.motherjones.com/politics/202...motherjones.comKarmelo Anthony and the futility of claiming self-defense while BlackBlack defendants' “Stand Your Ground” claims against white assailants are denied more than 99 percent of the time. 152
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 10/06/2026What a great Pride week in Travis County! 🌈 From Oak Hill Community Pride with HD 47 residents to the Pride flag raising at Commissioners Court with elected officials and community leaders.

Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 08/06/2026This morning I joined the @ginafortexas.bsky.social Pub Ed Tour because our kids deserve better. Parents should not have to spend their summer fighting for school funding or wondering whether their child’s school will have the resources it needs. I’m proud to stand with Gina in this fight. #txlege 052
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 08/06/2026Thank you to Lone Star Left for this extremely thoughtful write-up. Reading this piece brought tears to my eyes. Sometimes we get so immersed in the noise of politics that we forget to reflect on the people and experiences that shaped us. #txlege Link: www.lonestarleft.com/p/meet-the-c... 0104
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 02/06/2026Happy Pride! I’ve never met a fight I was scared of, and the fight to make sure everyone feels seen, respected, and included is one I’m always ready for. Love is love. 🌈 #txlege 1145
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 01/06/2026Ken Paxton is obsessed with political fights and nicknames. @jamestalarico is focused on lowering costs and making life more affordable for all of us. These two are not the same. #txlege 0147
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 31/05/2026“Once we transform this broken, corrupt system, we can start unrigging this economy. We can start raising our pay, cutting our taxes, lowering our cost. We can finally, start to get ahead.” - James Talarico for U.S. Senate. Let’s go @jamestalarico.bsky.social! #txlege 02312
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 29/05/2026What a feeling! I took a trip to Sugar Land to keynote the Asian American Dems of TX meeting, and for the first time, my parents got to hear me speak. I was also honored with a Trailblazer Award. Standing up for all communities where everyone belongs is one of the greatest honors of my life. #txlege 020

Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 27/05/2026Three years ago today, I was at the Texas Capitol when Democrats and Republicans overwhelmingly voted to impeach Ken Paxton for being too corrupt to serve. Nothing has changed since then except now Ken is asking Texans for a promotion. He won’t get one. Vote for @jamestalarico.bsky.social #txlege 0114
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 25/05/2026Memorial Day is a time to remember and honor the servicemembers who gave their lives for our country. Today, we reflect on their sacrifice, the families who carry that, and the responsibility we have to build a country worthy of what they gave. Thinking of all those mourning loved ones today. 🇺🇸 010
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 24/05/2026Four years ago today, 19 children and 2 teachers were murdered in Uvalde. The heartbreak that swept across Texas has never left, and the pain those families carry every single day is unimaginable. 13116
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 20/05/2026There's nothing stronger than a Texas Democrat, because we NEVER stop fighting for Texans. #txlege 033
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 18/05/2026Happy Birthday to @vikkigoodwintx.bsky.social! Give her a great birthday present and go vote for her for Lt. Governor in the primary runoff.

Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 12/05/2026At yesterday’s pub ed hearing, one educator’s testimony made clear how frustrated many in our schools have become because of state policies that tie their hands and underfund our classrooms. Teachers want to give every child the support they need to succeed. We need to listen to them. #txlege 161
Pooja Sethi @poojaintexas.bsky.social · 12/05/202618-year-old Luis Fernando Cabrera came here at age 11, worked tirelessly at Popeyes while finishing school, and was stopped driving home from work and turned over to ICE. Today I stood with faith leaders, attorneys, state legislators, and Congressman Greg Casar calling for his release. #txlege 153
