BREAKING: The House just passed the Life of the Mother Act — a bill I helped lead to ensure Texas doctors can provide lifesaving care without fear of prosecution. After Roe fell, women paid the price. This is progress — and we’ll keep fighting.

Texas law failed Summer Wills, a 29-year-old who couldn’t seek justice after surviving sexual assault. Today, that changes. HB 3073, the Summer Wills Act, has passed both chambers, giving more survivors a path to justice. Proud to joint author it. Proud to stand with survivors.

The 89th Legislative Session was a partisan battleground but I didn’t back down. Together, we blocked harmful bills and delivered real wins — from teacher pay raises to life-saving care. Because when we work across the aisle, we can deliver solutions that serve all Texans.

The governor's special session agenda calls for, "legislation further protecting unborn children and their mothers from the harm of abortion.” Since Abbott’s abortion ban went into effect, maternal mortality has risen 56%. Texans need protection from Republican extremism.

At the Joint Committee hearing, I asked a simple question: What could’ve prevented this tragedy? TxDOT's answer: Better forecasting data. But Trump cut funding for the National Weather Service, jeopardizing future forecasts and response. We’ve got to trust and fund our experts.

137 lives were lost in the July 4th floods. Now we must come together, find out what went wrong, and make sure it never happens again. Texans deserve leaders who take responsibility and work to protect every life.

Trump wished Ghislaine Maxwell “well” after she was charged with trafficking minors. Now she’s in a lower-security Texas prison. This is what it looks like when the well connected escape real accountability. As a former prosecutor, I call this what it is: a betrayal.

If Republicans are scared of Texas voters, they should adjust their policies — not rig our maps. We’re breaking quorum to protect our democracy. And we’re not backing down.

They’re willing to break the law to cling to power. We’re willing to break quorum to protect it. We don’t stand by. We stand up.

Breaking Quorum is an exceptional and extraordinary act of last resort.  It is not a decision I take lightly.  But Texas Democrats will stand up and protect democracy, even if it comes at a great cost.

Texas Republicans are trying to rig the congressional maps mid-decade.  That’s not redistricting. That’s cheating. And we’re not going to let them get away with it.

We’ve broken quorum. The ball is in Governor Abbott’s court.  Who do you play for — the people of Texas or President Trump?

A bomb threat this morning forced an evacuation—because of dangerous republican rhetoric. As a former human trafficking prosecutor, I've faced threats before, but never from the Governor or President Trump. Paxton told his supporters to 'hunt us down'—but we won't be silenced.

We’ve faced threats to our leadership, financial stability, and even bomb threats undermining our safety. But we’re standing strong. This fight isn’t just about Texas—it’s about fighting to protect the future of our democracy.
