We seek more transparency, not less. Juries should not be shielded from this info. What opponents overlook is that when you continue exploiting the Texas civil justice system like this you drive people & companies who invest in safety away. Replaced by the unqualified.

Get Out the Vote for the Runoff! If you voted in the Primary, vote in the same runoff. If you didn't vote in the Primary, you can vote in either runoff. The leaders chosen in these races will keep Texas creating jobs. When, Where, Who: txroundtable.com/get-out-the… #txlege #tx2026

I’m honored to have the endorsement of the @TX_TA!
Texas runs on trucking – the freight and logistics network powers our entire economy.
As Comptroller, I’ll continue championing policies to keep Texas MOVING!

In accidents involving big rigs and passenger vehicles, 70% of the time it is the passenger car’s fault.
With the busy holiday travel season ahead, it’s more important than ever for drivers to put safety first — and #RespectTheRig. Start by practicing safe driving habits like avoiding blind spots, giving big trucks extra room and passing them safely. Find more tips at RespectTheRig.org.
TXTA President and CEO, John D. Esparza, joined @SecDuffy today in Austin, TX for a press conference about new guidelines for english language proficiency in commercial truck drivers.

Self-driving freight is here. We’ve launched driverless operations in Texas, marking the first time heavy-duty trucks are hauling commercial freight on public roads with no one behind the wheel. We’re proud to lead this industry-defining milestone – paving the way for safer roads and more efficient freight. Learn more → bit.ly/4jXYIly

A key vote on TSSMA is expected soon. @RepMcCaul, @RepPfluger, & @RepTonyGonzales can join our effort to support Texas HAZMAT drivers by voting to pass this bill in @HomelandGOP.
Skilled truckers in Texas who haul HAZMAT fill a critical role, but TSA increased the fee these drivers must pay for their background check application by 70%. We need reform to alleviate this burden. Thank you @RepLuttrell for supporting TSSMA!
