I see some volunteers of Moms Demand in the Gallery. Open carry and poll watcher bills at polling sites really has me concerned after all the voter intimidation last year across Texas.

Y'all rock #DemCastTX

Talarico's #HB54 passes out, reality tv show prohibition of filming law enforcement?

Can't afford shoes for kids or permit to carry but, will buy gun and holster #HB1927 Rep Schaefer.

All I can think of during this hearing is victims of gun violence. (Reps wearing red or red ribbons showing support of those victims). I am thinking of Philandro Castille shot by police for having a gun in his car. #EndGunViolence

.@moodyforelpaso Thank you for trying to pass amendment 1 to #HB1927.

Amendment 3 fails
Thank you .@VoteAnnJohnson & .@jasminefor100 for trying. Rep Schaefer is stuck on passing #HB1927 with no adm. So frustrating & he is just affirming his confirmation bias 'guns are @ conservative worship level'.
#DemCastTX #OpposeHB1927 ImageImageImage
Amendment 6, Rep King's to #HB1927, I swear conservatives are going to next issue consealed handguns in utero. This Adm allows 18 yo to carry?

TY for trying with Adm 13 to #HB1927

.@RafaelAnchia .@ChrisGTurner .@NicoleCollier95 Texans know why Rep Schaefer doesn't want to exclude white supremacist from permitless carry.
#DemCastTX #txlege #GunControl ImageImageImageImage
TY .@jasminefor100 & @raylopezfortx
for trying with adm 14 to HB1927.

'Permitless Carry' in courthouses is dangerous. There are no metal detectors in our Live Oak County courthouse. #txlege #txpol

A case in Texas, Webb county centered, that Texans should pay attention to. Qualified Immunity is head butting 1st Adm protections.

Appeals court to decide if First Amendment should have protected Laredo’s “big crazy lady” from arrest

Priscilla Villarreal was arrested over her Facebook postings. In a rare proceeding, the entire 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals will weigh whether
she can sue, a case that could have major ramifications for citizen journalists like her -- and professional ones.

This was Rep Cloud making conspiracy claims about quarantining crops during an event in Rock Port 2022. His followers sucked it down and added. TX27, TX15, TX21 have MAGA, QAnon elected in the House.

Call these congressmen now. Tell them to stop blocking the budget reconciliation bill.

Rep Gonzalez, McAllen
Ph: 956-682-5545, 202-225-2531

2) These men are refusing to raise taxes on the rich so you and your children can have a better life.

Do you have kids? This bill would send $300 to you every month AND help you pay for child care.
#DemCastTX #Heathcare
3) It would also make preschool and two years of community college tuition free!

Are you or your parents or grandparents on Medicare? This bill would expand Medicare so it would cover eyeglasses, dentures and hearing aids-none of which are currently paid for by Medicare.

1) "Federal unemployment benefits ended for Texans on Saturday. Their electricity can be cut for nonpayment starting Tuesday. For renters, evictions will begin to proceed normally again at the end of July.
2) “We’re going to see disparity in the coming months as social safety nets are being taken away, and people are going to have to figure out all these things on their own,” said Pia Orrenius, a senior economist at the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas."
