Replying to @GinaHinojosaTX
HIGH-TAX HINOJOSA Gina is lying to save face about being a tax-hungry socialist. After 4 years on the AISD board, Gina increased homeowners' yearly property tax bills by almost $900. Her tax-and-spend agenda increased Texans' bills.

Scott is 100% correct here.
🚨CONSTITUTIONAL CRISIS🚨 Did you know that President George W. Bush won the 2000 presidential election by 537 votes? Yes. Florida decided the presidency by a mere 537 votes. So, when states — like New Jersey — are registering non-citizens to vote & hundreds of fraudulent votes are being counted, it presents a constitutional crisis & a National Emergency. 👉537 votes👈

Texas YRs don’t take strong, conservative leadership for granted. A sincere thank you to Speaker @Burrows4TX for sponsoring our 2026 State Convention in San Marcos and investing in the next generation of Texas GOP leaders! #txlege

A HUGE crowd turned out in Canton to hear from @GovHotWheels_TX speak about his plan to reduce our property taxes! This proposal would greatly reduce our taxes by capping appraisals, requiring voter approval for increases, and eliminating school property taxes for homeowners. #txlege

History is coming to Texas. For the first time ever, under President @realDonaldTrump’s leadership, the Republican Party will hold a Midterm Convention, and it’s happening in Dallas, Texas. The road to victory in 2026 runs through the Lone Star State! 🇺🇸🤠

Governor Abbott brought his fight to end out-of-control property taxes to Canton & a packed house showed up in support! This is what Texas Taxpayer Empowerment looks like.

Three years ago when I was elected, I said that @TexasYRs was going to be a team player, working for the success of the Republican Party as a whole. That’s a good size portion of my job - to work for the success of the coalition and our values, regardless of how I feel about one candidate or another. That’s still true, even if the landscape has shifted to favoring a different flavor of Republican candidate. I reserve the right to do my job and work for the success of the party with any Republican I choose regardless of factional differences within the party. If you don’t like various aspects of the party, join the club. That’s true everywhere there are large amounts of people. But you don’t make it better by throwing hissy fits from the sidelines. You don’t show the team that you care about “the soul of the team” by telling your team they deserve to lose and allowing opposing players to pass you unimpeded. Be the change you want to see. People don’t line up behind those criticizing from the sidelines. They line up behind the people who put in the work. They’ll fight for the people who believe what they believe in, and they’ll care about the people who show they care. A coalition is a coalition. It’s not all about you. We get our issues worked out between Election Day and the Primary. Between the Primary and Election Day we suck it up and support the coalition. I will never ask anyone to violate their conscience. But sometimes I think party insiders focus their conscience on too narrow a band, hyperfixating on the flaws of the individual and ignoring the impeding horde. Redirect your focus, correct flaws in private. Be the best example you can possibly be, and don’t burn up all respect you’ve earned because you’re also burning up your opportunity to make a difference. No matter who you are or your position within the party spectrum - your war will be better won by building bridges than burning them. With love, respect, and most of all hope for the future, -Derrick
It is an honor to be elected the new Chairman of the @TexasYRs today. The Texas Young Republicans will continue to fight for the Republican cause with new resolve, focusing on policy and principle. I was also proud to author a Constitutional Amendment that abolishes statewide TYRF endorsements in Republican primaries. While TYRF will have strong conservative policy positions, we will be a team player in this divided environment, pushing for the success of the Republican Party as a whole. We look forward to onboarding more young Republicans into our movement and working with our legislators to push policies that benefit Texas. We must preserve the American Dream by “planting trees whose shade our children will enjoy.” We will continue to fight to protect the unborn from murder, the children from sexualization, and the God-given rights of all Americans, but we will also begin to focus more on the future, fighting to ensure that the next generation won’t find homeownership out of reach, water scarce, and energy unaffordable. Thank you to my friends in the Federation, and thank you for your support for the new generation of Republican Leaders!

It’s hard to put this week into words. Coordinating Volunteers for @TexasGOP Convention was wild and incredibly rewarding. Thank you to each volunteer who gave up their time to make someone else have a better convention! See y’all in 2028🤠

A phenomenal and packed out party that provided diapers, wipes and formula to Houston pregnancy center and honored pro-life legend @BriscoeCain!
More than 200 young Republicans came together in Houston for TYRF's Party for Life during the Republican Party of Texas Convention. Thanks to the generosity of our attendees, we collected diapers, formula, and other baby essentials for a local crisis pregnancy center, and TYRF was honored to present a grant to support their mission of serving mothers, babies, and families. We were also honored to recognize Rep. @BriscoeCain for his tireless work advancing pro-life policies in Texas. Throughout his time in the Legislature, Rep. Cain has been a steadfast advocate for protecting the unborn and a leader on some of the most important pro-life victories our state has achieved. We were also grateful to welcome newly elected RPT Chairwoman D’Rinda Randall to the event. Thank you for joining us and sharing in a night dedicated to supporting life and strengthening the Republican Party. Thank you to everyone who attended and helped make a difference👏🏻

Had a wonderful time at this year’s @TexasGOP State Convention! Honored to serve as a delegate for the @BellCountyTXGOP in SD-24 as well as represent @BellCountyYRs and @TexasYRs at the state scale. Although there is much you can say about the type of people who attend convention, there’s no doubt that these are some of the most engaged, conservative people in the world. Can’t wait for 2028! Congratulations to @DrindaRandall and @CoveyTX for being elected Chair and Vice Chair of the Party! Looking forward to working with y’all! As a side note, I want to say how proud I am of TYRF. We had over 100 members who served as delegates and over 200 people at our Party for Life Diaper Drive Event. This is quite impressive for a group who experienced such a major splinter just a few short years ago. Our group is ready to elect Republicans up and down the ballot in November! We’ll be putting the work in, and hope to see y’all out blockwalking or at the polls! I hear a little something about Auxiliary Status… so stay tuned! – at Houston, TX

One more @TexasYRs leader becomes a county chair. Young Republicans lead the way! Proud of you, ya spreadsheet-loving weirdo. Hays County is in good hands. Although now I'm concerned the 2027 Hayes Lincoln-Reagan Dinner will be Star Wars themed. #leadright
Today, Michael Salvo officially assumes the role of Hays County Republican Party Chair, marking a new chapter focused on stronger local leadership, communication, and winning in 2026. The Hays County GOP is ready to grow our grassroots operation, support Republican candidates
