Excited to join James Barragán 🌟 on TX Capital Tonight to break down where key legislation stands—and what’s next, including whether a special session is coming. #txlege

"In an appeal submitted to the Texas First Court of Appeals on Monday, lawyers for Maria Rojas suggested that a woman who told state investigators that she received an abortion from Rojas may have actually been treated for a natural miscarriage."

.Jolt Action on SB 16 — proof-of-citizenship voting bill — failing to make it across the finish line #txlege

I don’t know if Americans realize how often ICE arrests US citizens, and how long those citizens can spend detained. I spoke to Davino Watson, who spent 3.5 years in a detention center. He was a citizen every minute of that time. 1/3
