Well those “gummies” you like and were legal on July 30th became a felony on July 31st. That’s politics being into you.
I voted against the full THC ban during session in favor of regulations.

Today is September 1, 2025, the day HB 107 takes effect in the State of Texas! Today, which is also the first day of #SickleCellAwarenessMonth also serendipitously marks the first time in state history that we have a statewide sickle cell registry. This is huge! Thank you to Reps Jarvis Johnson and Lauren Simmons and their staff (Katelyn, Amanda, Mo, Cody) for all the hard work put into this registry over the last three legislative sessions! And thank you for allowing me to share in this journey as a staffer/advocate along the way! 🌙 🩸 ♥️

Republicans think they can walk all over us. Today I'm going to kick back.
I’ve submitted my intention to filibuster the new congressional maps.
Going to be a long night.

I’m so proud of @NicoleCollier95 for standing on business but this should not be happening. We committed no crimes when we broke quorum and now that quorum has been restored, House Dems should not be under surveillance.

The only bill on the calendar today is the redistricting bill.
Also, the governor could have acted immediately to help Texans in central Texas. He chose Trump over his constituents.
Texans can tell the difference between victims and fundraising stunts.
The victims are the families who lost children and loved ones in the tragic central Texas floods.
What’s happening right now on the House floor is nothing more than a political fundraiser by someone who unnecessarily delayed flood relief for the past few weeks.
I challenge my colleague @NicoleCollier95 to donate all the money raised during her sleep-in to the families of the Kerr County floods.

Over the long term, we shouldn’t have political gerrymandering in America, just a fair fight between Republicans and Democrats based on who’s got better ideas. But since Texas is taking direction from a partisan White House and gerrymandering in the middle of a decade to try and maintain the House despite their unpopular policies, I have tremendous respect for how Governor Newsom has approached this. He’s put forward a smart, measured approach in California, designed to address a very particular problem at a very particular moment in time.
We’re grateful to President @BarackObama for being in this fight with us and supporting our mission.
California is advancing a process that gives voters the final say on implementing new maps.
This is a fair and responsible response to Trump’s unprecedented power grab.

Nicole, we are all in that chamber with you. Thank you to you and all the Texas Democrats who are standing up for the people.
BREAKING: Vice President @KamalaHarris just called Rep. @NicoleCollier95 —
Who's been staying on the House floor for 30+ hours rather than submit to GOP police state tactics.
"You are those who history will reveal to have been heroes of this moment."
The nation is watching Texas. #txlege

TODAY: Republicans made redistricting their FIRST bill on the floor.
Not flood relief.
Not helping survivors.
Not preventing future disasters.
Racial gerrymandering for Trump.
Texans deserve better than this.

Here’s one of those democrats who is fighting and @RepLSimmons could use our support.
She had to uproot her family to ensure their safety to do what she felt was right, needed and important as a public servant to her constituents.

Today I’m proud to stand with thousands across the country who refuse to let extremists rig our democracy.

Texas Democrats used every tool they had to resist a corrupt redistricting process. This is what that fight looked like. youtu.be/SWgaRPUvzhA #AtOurTable #txlege
