I’m very proud of you working with@TexasAFP and the Senate sponsor @TeamBettencourt to get this to the Governor’s desk so we can put homeownership within reach to more Texans!
Big win for Texans! SB 15 just passed on second reading in the House—bringing us one step closer to getting government out of the way and letting the market build.
Huge thanks to Chairman @GatesforTexas, @TeamBettencourt, Lt. Governor @DanPatrick, and Speaker @Burrows4TX for championing this critical reform.
Let’s get it across the finish line!

So you show up…
You put in the work…
The countless hours…
Go through the death threats from this scumbuckets supporters…
And they call you a secretary?
Shows me that no one else has put in more work for Austin than you have. And it scares them.
Great job friend!
i’m proud to have worked with @TeamBettencourt on this vital issue - look for more reforms and more transparency to come in 2027.
This Houston Chronicle/@BakerInstitute report shows exactly why the #txlege passed HB 21! 🛑
Housing Finance Corporations, HFCs were taking billions in multi-family property value off the tax rolls and NOT providing real relief for renters. Even worse, these “traveling” HFCs were handing out tax exemptions without meaningful local approval. A real mess.
In Harris County alone, 211 apartment properties worth $5.3 billion avoided $119 million in property taxes in 2025. That means $1.4 BILLION over the decade for all local taxing jurisdictions. Ugh!!
That burden shifted to everyone else: ISDs, cities, the Hospital District, MUDs, and taxpayers across Harris County. One MUD near Addicks Reservoir reportedly lost 25% of its tax base.
That is why Rep. @GatesforTexas and I passed HB 21 to close the traveling HFC loophole, restore local control, and demand real public benefit in exchange for public tax breaks.
Texas needs more affordable housing. Texas should not subsidize shell games that become property tax shelters.
Thanks to @BillKingHouston and @jw_diamond for helping expose how bad this problem became before HB 21 stopped the giveaway. @MarkPJonesTX, @Joyce_T_Beebe et al. -Senator PB
Don’t listen to the media, listen to the people of the Middle East on how they believe they’re being freed from a terr*r*st regime!
Many thanks for your support. I look forward to your help in the general election !

This week, Superintendent Dr. Smith and the FBISD executive team traded their desks for delivery duties, stepping into the role of holiday elves! They packed gifts and food items generously donated by community partners, community members and district staff. The team delivered items to a designated campus, where they will be shared with a family in need.
As part of the Holiday Cheer initiative, these donations help provide essential items and meaningful support for families experiencing hardship during the holiday season.
This initiative reflects the true spirit of the season, bringing our community together through kindness, generosity and care. Thank you to everyone who helped make this possible. flic.kr/s/aHBqjCE7pz

Many thanks! I am truly honored.

Missy and I join with others in condemning this violence against Christians in Nigeria. President Trump is to be commended for taking decisive action against this genocide.
'HELP IS COMING': A Nigerian Christian leader praises President Trump for shining a light on the violence against Christians in his country.
"We're quite excited about the intervention by President Trump," he tells @kayleighmcenany on "Saturday in America."
