We fought hard to make Summer EBT a reality in Texas. I am disappointed on behalf of the millions of Texans who would have benefitted. Read my full statement on the Summer EBT veto: #txlege wallefortexas.com/press/2025summ…

The Gov’s veto blocks TX from drawing down millions to help families feed kids in the summer. Veto reasoning doesn’t hold water. The current fed budget proposal: 1. Does not amend S-EBT rates; 2. May not change SNAP rates; & 3. Wouldn’t make SNAP changes until FY28 #txlege

This Session, Senator Bryan Hughes and I passed HB 252 to allow certain state employees to get paid twice a month instead of monthly. Proud to bring home another win for working Texans! #txlege

“Cruelty is the only explanation for Gov. Greg Abbott’s line-item veto that wiped out $450 million in federal funds dedicated to provide summer food aid to poor children.” (cc Armando Walle & State Representative Toni Rose) #txlege

It was an honor to bring home key investments in HD 140 this #txlege Session. Big things coming to North Houston/Harris County parks and water infrastructure.

The Gov's veto of the Summer EBT meals $$ for TX kids is still a disappointment. During the school year, tho, kids eligible for reduced price meals will now be fed at no cost to TX families. Proud to have worked with State Representative Toni Rose on this in the state budget this session.

1/2 Back in 2019, I worked w/ Dr. Sam Brody to create the Institute for Disaster Resilient TX. This Session, I worked hard to secure funding so that Institute for a Disaster Resilient Texas (IDRT) at Texas A&M Galveston 👍🌊 could continue its important work bridging the gap between research & disaster response. #txlege

1/3 My heart is with the victims and survivors of the recent Texas floods. These communities need relief and emergency dollars fast. The truth is, Gov. Abbott doesn’t need a special session to make that happen. #txlege

“Gov. Abbott doesn’t need a special session for these communities to access federal and state aid. He can act now using the powers he has used many times before, often in much less serious circumstances.” Read my opinion in the Houston Chronicle: houstonchronicle.com/opinion/outloo… #txlege
