The night we first got elected - Runoff election April 14, 1992. I was tired but happy that my future wife was with me that night. We were engaged 2 years later. As they say, it’s been a heck of a ride — and we’re still riding!!! If you know Michelle, you know she’s the best!

Great day for boating safety! @GovAbbott just signed Kali's Law, requiring boat operators to use an engine cutoff switch. In the last 3 years, 124 people lost their lives in boating accidents. @TPWDnews estimates that 116 would have survived if cutoff switch would have been used.

On this 75th Anniversary of the Allied Invasion at Normandy, we remember w/ gratitude the men who didn’t know the outcome, but made a decision that freedom was worth it. Our world would be a different place without their decisiveness at a very pivotal time in history. #DDay75

Today, I joined 55 of my colleagues in the TX House and submitted a letter to the @USTradeRep44 & @POTUS regarding the proposed tariffs on all imports from Mexico. As the 10th largest economy in the world, Texas must maintain its competitiveness in the global economy. #txlege

According to a new study in the Journal of Research in Personality, extroverts prefer the beach to the mountains, while introverts prefer the opposite.
Hope y’all all go find a beach or mountain or both this summer and relax with friends and family. Carpe Diem

“This is much bigger than discriminating against gays—this is about bigotry, period. Love is love is love is love is love is, love.” Thank you Rep. @RepRaymondTX for your testimony. SB 1978 is a discriminatory & unnecessary bill. #txlege #TexasForAll

The lobby outside the house chamber is currently filled with taxpayer-funded lobbyists lobbying against the taxpayer-funded lobbying bill. Try saying that 3 times fast. #txlege. #txlegeirony

Extremely proud to pass HB 24. Studies show child witnesses to domestic violence: 6x more likely to commit suicide, 3x to become abusers, 2x to abuse drugs. HB 24 recognizes these children as victims and is important 1st step of identifying + connecting them to services. #txlege
