The Texas House just passed a virtual ban on hemp-derived products—not because it was right for Texas, but because the Lt. Governor held HB2 (public school funding) hostage to force it through. 53,000 jobs will be lost. Texans and veterans who rely on these products will be left

Bans don’t work. Bans push products into the black market and criminalize everyday Texans. What we need is smart, enforceable regulation. I spoke against an unenforceable ban on THC products and in support of safety, accountability, and real enforcement. #TxLege #SB3

Texas: where Republicans trust you with guns, but not with gummies. 🤡

The murder of two Israeli embassy officials outside the Capital Jewish Museum is horrifying. My thoughts are with their families. Antisemitism and violence have no place in our country. I condemn such hate and violence in all its forms.

Today on the House floor, I introduced an amendment to strike SB 11 because our public schools should be places where ALL children feel welcome and included, regardless of their faith or background. When we mandate prayer time and Bible reading in schools, we're crossing the

We had a chance to regulate THC safely. Instead, lawmakers chose a blanket ban that hurts patients, small businesses, and our economy. I voted no. #txlege

Texans are projected to have higher electric bills & lose over $100 billion in investment if the US Senate passes the House bill as is. The industry will survive but we'll experience reduced grid reliability and economic slowdown, esp. over next few years. douglewin.com/p/texas-the-bi…

Here’s a quick summary of some highlights from this session, and an acknowledgment that there were many missed opportunities. We need change in our state leadership, and that’s why I’m running for Lt Governor. I will focus on the needs of the people of Texas. I look forward to

The Governor could still veto this poorly thought out bill…

Three years ago, our hearts were shattered and our world changed forever. Today we hold close the memory of 21 beautiful souls - 19 precious children and 2 devoted teachers - whose light was taken from us far too soon. The ache in our hearts hasn't healed. For the families who

They said ban it. We said regulate it. They said criminalize it. We said modernize it. Texas House Democrats fought for 50,000 workers, veterans' medicine, and common sense. Because someone has to. #txlege Featuring Rafael Anchía @JamesTalarico Jolanda Jones @GeneForTexas

Our region's strength lies in our diversity and tradition of neighbors looking out for one another. Sharing my response to recent events and our continued commitment to ensuring all residents can practice their faith in peace.

Mansfield ISD salutatorian used her platform and time wisely. She gave a terrific speech calling out book bans and vouchers. Bravo!

Between the 2008–09 and 2018–19 academic years, the number of students completing traditional teacher education programs in the U.S. dropped by more than one-third! Why? Because the workload teachers face is no longer matched by the pay, respect, or value they deserve.

Texas Republicans just passed a bill forcing every teacher to post the Ten Commandments in their classroom. They passed it on the Sabbath… breaking the 4th Commandment. Maybe they should try following the Ten Commandments before mandating them.

This Memorial Day, we honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom. Their courage secured the liberties we cherish today. To our fallen heroes and the Gold Star families who carry on their legacy - we will never forget.

On the House Floor, I spoke in support of SB 800 and successfully passed an amendment to expand the bill. Now, more Texas students will be equipped with clear reporting resources and access to the Crime Victims Compensation Program—building on the work we began with the Natalia

I have issued a statement regarding a bail reform bill, SJR 87. This is a deeply emotional and complex issue. I’ve spent time listening, learning, and considering how we balance safety, fairness, and justice. The full statement can be found here:
