Today, I marched in the Mega Marcha for Bipartisan Immigration Reform in Dallas. A broken system hurts immigrants, weakens our democracy, and goes against American values. We must protect the rights of all and uphold our Constitution! #MegaMarcha2025

I stand with @NicoleCollier95 who is courageously resisting GOP attempts to force her to sign away her right to be free from unconstitutional surveillance. Demanding fair maps is not a crime, it’s a fundamental right. Her courage in defense of democracy is #GoodTrouble #txlege
