Only four Republican NO-votes would tank the spending bill. For the sake of 17 million Americans in jeopardy of losing their healthcare, I hope they find the courage.

The GOP spending bill will make Texans sicker, ripping away healthcare from 1.6 million people.
The GOP spending bill includes $1 trillion in cuts to Medicaid, leaving 1.6 million Texans without healthcare. This will hurt so many folks, including our kids.
Texas has the highest rate of uninsured people in the nation. The GOP spending bill would decimate Medicaid funding, making it even harder for Texas families to get the healthcare they need. www.expressnews.com/lifestyle/ar...
I am praying for the firefighters who lost their lives by a horrific act of violence while in the line of duty—and for the entire Idaho community they served.

The governor is rejecting $450 mil meaning that 3.8 million Texas children will go hungry. He’s not acting alone. In Congress, Republicans are jeopardizing food assistance programs that help hard working Texas families put food on the table. It’s shameful. www.houstonchronicle.com/politics/tex...
My statement on today’s Supreme Court decision on birthright citizenship:

“What's happening now is that they're bending the intelligence to suit whatever the president wants and that's dangerous for the United States.”
Rep Joaquin Castro tells @mehdirhasan.bsky.social that Iran posed no ‘imminent threat’ and that the president was dishonest about his assessment of Iran
Breakfast for dinner!
Today we celebrate the 10th anniversary of Obergefell v. Hodges. Without this landmark decision, marriage equality would not be the law of the land in Texas. I’ll keep defending Texans’ freedom to love who they want to love.
My office is currently hiring fall interns. We are looking for passionate young people who are eager to be a part of the democratic process.

Congress is a co-equal branch of government. Republicans must join Democrats in asserting Congressional authority, especially when it comes to entering a war Americans do not want.

Trump is claiming victory despite a strike that fell short of eliminating Iran’s nuclear capabilities and opens the U.S. up to an endless cycle of war. More of my thoughts below: www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
My son Roman joined me at work today!

The President took the United States to war with Iran without the authorization of Congress.
He claims the military operations were a success but is now refusing to brief the Congress or explain his actions in a timely manner.
Why is there a delay?
It was an honor to nominate eight students to attend our military academies. After demonstrating their academic ability and moral character, they will now join the many San Antonians who have served our nation.
Y’all are making us proud! www.ksat.com/news/local/2...
The Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision has harmed women across the country. Women deserve the right to make choices about their own health, future, and families. I’ll keep fighting to protect a women’s right to choose.
Americans don’t want another long, messy and expensive war. Instead of spending trillions on another war in the Middle East, we should invest in Americans and build out the infrastructure of opportunity here at home.
