From a constituent in Austin, TXHB3717 / SB 2308 Support for ibogaine research
As a Texan, I’m asking you to support HB 3717 and companion SB 2308, which would allocate $50 million for FDA-approved clinical trials of ibogaine—a plant medicine showing incredible promise in treating opioid use disorder, addiction, post-traumatic stress, traumatic brain injury and other co-occurr
From a constituent in Austin, TXI am against school vouchers!
I am against school choice, or School vouchers! Look at Arizona. Their program is not working. They're closing in public schools! Please find public schools first! It's not a school choice if you live in a rural area and there are no private schools!
From a constituent in Austin, TXDefend the rights of transgender Texans
I am very concerned about the introduction of any bill that may infringe on the rights of transgender Texans. I don't see any reason to criminalize, or in any other way limit the rights of Texas residents who want to identify as a different gender than the one assigned at birth. This is a personal d
From a verified voter in Austin, TXA waste of time no to The FURRIES bill
This bill is a misguided attempt to address a non-issue based on misinformation and falsehoods. Children engaging in pretend play and using their imaginations is normal childhood behavior that should not be restricted or punished. Instead of pursuing this unnecessary legislation, our representatives
From a constituent in Austin, TXHow is this following the Constitution of the United States of America?
What in the HELL is this nonsense. Doesn't the constitution say "Separation of church and STATE"?!
From a verified voter in Austin, TXDemanding disclosure of purpose of trans data collection
Texas has been collecting information on transgender individuals who attempt to change the sex listed on their identification documents like driver's licenses and birth certificates. This unwarranted data collection raises serious privacy concerns and appears to be part of the state's broader effort
From a constituent in Austin, TXVote NO on the "District of Austin".
Please vote no on House Joint Resolution 86 (HJR 86) and House Bill 274 (HB 274). These proposals aim to create the “District of Austin,” As a 28+ year Austin resident, I know our city has strengths and weaknesses, but we 100% do not need the State coming in to run things when they disagree with wh
From a verified voter in Austin, TXProtect public land access for all Texans
This proposal to dissolve the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department and potentially close or reduce access to state parks is concerning. Our public lands are a shared resource that should be protected and made accessible to all Texans, regardless of income. Restricting entry through closures or fees c
From a constituent in Austin, TXProtect trans texans! Protect individual rights!
Texas' edict to invalidate court orders allowing gender marker changes on identification documents and birth certificates is an authoritarian overstep that dismisses both judicial authority and individual rights. Revoking legally obtained identity documents disregards the human dignity and autonomy
From a constituent in Austin, TXSave the Texas Park and Wildlife Department vote against House Bill 4938
The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD) plays a vital role in conserving our state's natural resources and promoting outdoor recreation.

From a verified voter in Austin, TXInvestigate influence of wealthy donors on Texas education
The information provided raises concerning issues about the influence of wealthy donors like Jeff Yass on education policy in Texas through significant political contributions. It is deeply troubling that out-of-state billionaires are funneling massive amounts of money into Texas elections with the
From a verified voter in Austin, TXProtecting DEI initiatives vital for inclusive Texas education
This proposed legislation banning diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives in Texas public schools raises serious concerns about its potential negative impacts.

From a constituent in Austin, TXProtect Public Education Funding: Oppose School Voucher Scheme
Public education should remain entirely secular and free from religious influence, as enshrined in the separation of church and state. Funneling taxpayer dollars to private religious schools via voucher programs violates this foundational principle and imposes beliefs onto a captive audience of chil
From a constituent in Austin, TXOppose SB 1073
I am an attorney encouraging you to oppose SB 1073. While framed as a religious freedom bill for lawyers, I am concerned that the bill is written in a way that would allow attorneys to discriminate against people, such as gay people, in their practice under the guise of religious freedom. A bill tha
From a verified voter in Austin, TXReject discriminatory policies targeting transgender rights and healthcare
This is gross government overreach and it's cruel. Transgender people have the right to bodily autonomy and to make their own decisions. This legislation promotes suicidal ideation, and may even lead to genocide against the transgender community by denying access to gender-affirming healthcare. I ur
From a verified voter in Austin, TXThe 10 commandments up in schools is a violation of free speech
The push to mandate displays of the Ten Commandments in public school classrooms raises concerns about respecting the religious diversity of students and families.
