I am excited to let you know that I’m running for reelection to the Texas House of Representatives for District 134.
With your support, we've accomplished a lot; but there is much more to do. #txlege
Governor Abbott just said he’s got “bullets in his belt” that he’s ready to use against Texas Democrats.
As a prosecutor, I’ve had criminals threaten my life.
I never thought I’d see the day that the Governor of Texas threatens my life.
@GovAbbott, retract your statement.
Donald Trump is terrified of voters.
But instead of changing his policies, he's trying to force Texas Democrats back to Austin so he can steal five House seats.
We won’t be intimidated. We’re fighting for democracy — and we’re not backing down.
Republicans say I’m “abandoning my duty” by breaking quorum.
Let’s be clear:
❌Flying to Cancun is abandonment.
❌Slashing healthcare is abandonment.
❌Defunding public schools is abandonment.
Protecting the constitution is NOT abandonment — it’s the job.
Texas Republicans are forcing a vote on their rigged election maps.
If they knew they could win the election — they wouldn’t be stealing 5 congressional seats.
This is a blatant, racist power grab.
We are at the U.S. Capitol today doing the job we were elected to do, fighting for our constituents’ constitutional right to vote in free & fair elections. We need federal action in the fight for our right to vote. We need the #ForthePeopleAct. #txlege
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.
This is not just about Texas.
This is about voters getting to choose the outcome of the next election.
That’s the promise of our nation — and it’s worth fighting for.
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.
Ted Cruz REFUSES to answer whether or not he supports abortion exceptions for rape or incest.
But we know the truth: Ted Cruz led the fight to ban abortion and called the overturning of Roe v Wade a “massive victory.”
Texas women deserve better. #SackTed
Proud to stand with the Dean of the House, Rep Senfronia Thompson, and my Texas Democratic colleagues to protect the rights of Texans to vote in free and fair elections. #txlege#letthepeoplevote
Republicans rig maps because they can’t win on ideas.
I’m not afraid of fair maps—that’s why I filed a bill for an independent redistricting commission.
If you have to cheat to win, you didn’t win.
