The work isn’t done—and I’m not done either. Today I’m announcing my reelection campaign for Texas House District 70. From day one, I’ve been focused on results, not rhetoric—and I’m proud of what we’ve accomplished. But we can’t stop now, and I’m more motivated than ever to serve the people of #H...Read more

The work isn’t done—and I’m not done either. Today I’m announcing my reelection campaign for Texas House District 70. From day one, I’ve been focused on results, not rhetoric—and I’m proud of what we’ve accomplished. But we can’t stop now, and I’m more motivated than ever to serve the people of #HD70. Let’s do this together. Help us continue the fight for #HD70 by donating today: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/plesafortexas?refcode=start260623

The good news keeps coming from the Governor’s desk — two more bills I proudly carried in the Texas House are now law! ✅ SB 1563: Establishes critical training for county jailers on how to better serve and support justice involved veterans in their custody. ✅ SB 1723: Launches a rapid DNA testing pilot program and modernizes standards to help reduce crime lab backlogs — speeding up justice for victims and helping exonerate the innocent. These laws will make a real difference for public safety, our justice system, and the well-being of those who’ve served our country. 🇺🇸 Proud to get this across the finish line for #HD70 and all Texans. 💙

Big news from the #TXLege! 4 of my bills have officially been signed into law by the Governor, bringing the total to 5 bills passed this session that I was proud to carry as the primary author! ✅ HB 108: Cracking down on violent criminals who wear body armor — a deeply personal bill after the tragic Allen Outlet Mall shooting where we lost 3 neighbors from #HD70. ✅ HB 1592: Protecting Texas agriculture with an opt-in alert system for plant and wildlife diseases. ✅ HB 2434: Ensuring state employees with service gaps get the full benefits they’ve earned. ✅ HCR 98: Urging Congress to partner with states on anti-drone tech to keep our border secure. These new laws go into effect September 1st. Thank you to everyone who helped make this possible — I’m honored every day to fight for the people of House District 70. 💙

“Defunding” Planned Parenthood won’t reduce costs—it will strip away care, push providers out, and leave patients with nowhere to go. Over a million patients could lose care if Congress succeeds. We won’t let them take it away. Text CARE to 22422 and tell your Senator to stop the attacks on Plann...Read more

Juneteenth gives us an opportunity to remember that Rep. Edwards and Dr. Opal Lee’s legacies are not in a distant, dusty record in the past, they are living in the hopes we carry and the justice we seek. Our work as legislators, activists, and champions for civil rights and social justice proves that progress is possible when hope overcomes fear. Thank you to the Plano Community Forum, Mayor Muns, and Collin County NAACP and President June Jenkins for organizing our Collin County Juneteenth celebration, it is an honor to live and work with you! #TXLege #HD70
