• Here's the frustration I hear all over Brazoria County: "My tax rate went down, but my bill went up." How does that happen? The appraisal process is the culprit. Every year, appraisal districts pile on higher home values, and those runaway appraisals quietly drive up your property taxes, even when we cut rates and raise exemptions in Austin. It's the loophole that keeps your bill climbing no matter what we do. I was proud to help deliver historic property tax relief this session, including bigg

• The people who pour their hearts into our kids every day deserve to be paid accordingly. That's why I voted for the largest investment in public schools in Texas history, and I made sure it didn't stop at classroom teachers. This new law funds real pay raises for the school counselors, librarians, and nurses who look after our children's minds, bodies, and futures, the support staff who too often get overlooked. We also rewarded the teachers who take on the toughest assignments, expanding ince

• Water is not optional. Every family needs it, and no family should be hit with a bill it can't plan for. That is why I signed a letter to the Public Utility Commission urging it to reject Aqua Texas's requested rate increase. The numbers are hard to ignore. In one Cypress neighborhood, a household using 15,000 gallons a month now pays $369.64, up from $205.63. That is an increase of about 80 percent. Sewer charges are also being calculated on 100 percent of metered water, including water that n

• Water is one of the most important resources we have, and protecting it will always be a priority for me. Today’s Lower Brazos River Coalition meeting was another important conversation about the future of our water supply, responsible growth, and the demands being placed on our infrastructure as Texas continues to grow. As a member of the House Natural Resources Committee, I take these issues seriously. We have to plan ahead, ask the right questions, and make sure the decisions we make today
