I have asked Texas Attorney General Paxton’s office to investigate the @netflix film “Cuties” for possible violations of child exploitation and child pornography laws. #CUTIES#txlege
I am NOT going to use the evil acts of a handful of people to diminish the God-given rights of my fellow Texans. Period. None of these so-called gun-control solutions will work to stop a person with evil intent. 2/6
Netflix, Inc. indicted by grand jury in Tyler Co., Tx for promoting material in Cuties film which depicts lewd exhibition of pubic area of a clothed or partially clothed child who was younger than 18 yrs of age which appeals to the prurient interest in sex #Cuties#txlege
I say NO to “red flag” pre-crime laws. NO to universal background checks. NO to bans on AR-15s, or high capacity magazines. NO to mandatory gun buybacks. 3/6
Dad died yesterday. He loved God. Married a godly wife of 53 years. Served his country in the Vietnam war. Built a home. Raised 3 sons who love the Lord, married godly women, and are raising his 8 grandchildren to love the Lord. Dad has received his eternal inheritance. #txlege
What can we do? YES to praying for victims. YES to praying for protection. YES to praying that God would transform the hearts of people with evil intent. YES to fathers not leaving their wives and children. YES to discipline in the homes. 4/6
YES to supporting our public schools. YES to giving every law-abiding single mom the right to carry a handgun to protect her and her kids without permission from the state, and the same for all other law-abiding Texans of age. 5/6
I’m getting the biggest property tax relief in Tx history out of the $24 billion surplus. Right?
No. Got my Notice of Appraised Value for my home. Increase of $44,583.
Legislature raised homestead exemption by $40,000.
My taxes are going up when local gov sets rates. #txlege
54 Democrats in the Texas House just voted “Present” on a constitutional amendment requiring a person to be a U.S. citizen to vote in Texas elections. The measure failed because 100 votes out of 150 were needed. An open border is the long-term strategy. #txlege#border
