<p>We can have a strong border while reforming our draconian and unwieldy immigration system. If good people want to live and work here legally, it shouldn’t take them decades to make that happen. America, and Texas in particular, was built by and for immigrants. This should be a point of pride, not shame.</p>

<p>Artificial intelligence is here and it isn’t going away–but that doesn’t mean we have to accept whatever is thrown at us by a handful of techbro billionaires racing to cash in. It is possible to embrace scientific advances while still ensuring that they proceed in a responsible way that will do the least amount of harm to Americans. Sensible regulation is… well, it’s sensible.</p>

<p><strong>WASHINGTON, DC </strong>–Senate and House Republicans still cannot find a way to fully reopen the federal government, putting this shutdown on track for <strong>the longest shutdown in US history</strong>.</p>

<h4>Republican Congress Extends Shutdown Through April</h4>

<p><strong>AUSTIN, TX </strong>– “At the request of the <strong>Travis County Republican Party</strong> regarding early voting tabulation procedures, early voting ballots will not be counted until Election Day. As a result,<strong> early voting results may not be available</strong> when polls close at 7 p.m., and posting of results to the website could be delayed,” Travis County Clerk Dyana Limon-Mercado said.</p>

<h4>Travis County Republicans Delay Primary Returns</h4>

<p><strong>MIDLAND, TX</strong> – The Midland Reporter-Telegram sat down separately with both TX-11 candidates ahead of the fall election, asking each the same seven questions. Asked why her opponent falls short as a representative, Reynolds said: <strong>"I believe that your loyalty should be to the people in your district and your state and your country over that of your party."</strong> Refusing to let Congress abdicate its role as a check on the executive branch, she decided it was time to step up.</p>

<h4>A Representative's Loyalty Is to the District, Not the Party</h4>

<p>Inflation has far outstripped salaries over just the past few years, not to mention the past several decades. Jobs that used to allow a family to live comfortably now can’t even keep a single person living above the poverty level. Texas is currently the <a href="https://demographics.texas.gov/Visualizations/2024/PovertyInTx/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><strong>11th poorest state in the country</strong></a>, and 1 in 5 children live at or below the poverty level in Texas. This is unconscionable. </p>

<p>It’s common knowledge that West Texas runs on oil and gas jobs. But that “common knowledge” is a misconception. <strong>Texas now has more green energy jobs than oil and gas combined.</strong></p><p>This is a good thing, because we need these industries if Texas is to remain competitive as an energy producer. China has gone “all in” on all types of energy: coal, oil, gas, and nuclear, but also solar, wind, hydro, and geothermal. Texas should do the same.</p><p><strong>We cannot afford another Texas energy crisis.</strong></p>

<p><strong>SAN ANGELO, TX </strong>– "My first order of business will be to <strong>make Congress start doing its job</strong>.

<h4>Pfluger Won't Speak Truth to Power</h4>

<p><strong>MIDLAND, TX </strong>– “Kids, I'm so damn proud of you for standing up for what you believe in. Don't ever let any adult tell you that your voice doesn't matter, or that you're wrong for caring about how our government treats human beings.”</p>

<h4>Reynolds Vows Legal Defense for Midland Students Following Anti-ICE Walk-Out</h4>

<h4>Claire on Wait What?!</h4>

<p>Nobody should go bankrupt because they break a hip or get cancer. And the current system of having our jobs associated with our health insurance is both absurd and unique in the developed world. A single-payer health insurance system may seem out of reach, but Medicare and the VA do just that for millions and millions of Texans.</p>

<p><strong>NEW YORK</strong> – To make sure you get a postmark that reflects the day you mail something, you’ll have to go to a post office counter and ask for a manual postmark.</p>
