Sometimes I walk out here for really no reason at all. The Texas Capitol is just beautiful and belongs to poor children in east El Paso County as much as it belongs to a hedge fund manager who lives in Highland Park. God bless us all.

What do you mean, Luke?Luke Macias @lukemaciastxEvery Republican State Representative should vote for a Republican speaker of the Texas House and then immediately begin organizing to take back the Texas House in 2028.
