Saluting Aurora, Kevin& Serena, Vandegrift HS sophomores advocating to maintain the International Baccalaureate diploma program, which is valuable for so many students.
I commend their advocacy & hope the Leander School Board can find a way in these difficult budget times to maintain the program.

Trump halted all work by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, a watchdog agency that delivered $21B back to consumers by stopping loan sharks, scams against veterans, auto insurance denials & more.
While Trump does nothing to lower prices, he is making it easier for corporations to scam you.
Your water may become undrinkable, and the air may be harder to breathe as toxic dangers proliferate with polluters in charge.
But don't worry because Trump is focused on bigger issues like renaming the Gulf of Mexico!
Now, Trump/Musk have halted its work and seek to terminate it. Too much success at holding their buddies accountable. (2/2)
Founded in response to the 2007 financial crash, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has delivered $21 billion back into Americans’ pocketbooks by cracking down on payday lenders, overdraft fees, canceled debts, and more. (1/2)
After initial litigation losses for their illegal actions, Trump Admin now begins intimidating/attacking judiciary.
Vance—ignore court orders.
Musk—impeach “corrupt” judges.
We must pushback hard against these next leaps down the pathway to tyranny.
Continuing his assault on science and health, Trump ordered the removal of important CDC data and guidance concerning contraceptives.
Mandating motherhood through severe limits on birth control access appears to be next GOP goal along with national abortion ban.
Our runners-up were Viraj Velur, Shivank Ahuja, Vihaan Gandra and Pranav Kulshrestha from Grisham Middle School and Aaditya Bhat, Edwin Feng, Ryan Reddy, and Henry Liu from LASA.
With such creative students, Austin can remain a tech leader.
Recognizing talented 2024 Congressional App Challenge winners & runners-up at Capital Factory.
Our winners from Westwood High School, Yuegelica Yeong & Harshadha Chaganti created Homonium, an AI-powered legal aid platform to give free, accessible legal assistance to those w/common legal challenges.
Donald Trump authorized Elon Musk to run roughshod through our federal government—assuring his access to your personal information such as bank account numbers, Social Security numbers, and health information.
Meanwhile, every Republican lawmaker refusing to speak out is complicit.
Despite a court order to resume paying vital programs like Head Start and community health centers, Trump is still delaying payment to many.
His interference with vulnerable children’s access to a pediatrician and preschool is deplorable and illegal.
I’ll be joining @velshimsnbc.bsky.social at 10amCT / 11amET to talk about Trump’s wrongdoing and efforts to dismantle key government agencies.

Gleeful billionaires at home and adversaries around the world are cheering on the destruction of an agency that saves millions. JFK created USAID to represent “our political obligations as the single largest counter to the adversaries of freedom." Abandoning those obligations endangers us all.
"Future generations will marvel that it wasn’t China’s actions that eroded US standing. Instead, it was a US president and the billionaire he unleashed to shoot first and aim later, eliminating an institution that is a cost-effective example of what once distinguished the US from our adversaries."
Instead of a trade war that nobody wins, I have joined colleagues in introducing a bipartisan bill to strengthen the United States’ economic partnership with the Czech Republic, easing travel and investment between our two nations.
While never elected, Elon Musk elected to invade the privacy of every American by accessing confidential information such as bank account numbers, Social Security numbers, healthcare records, and tax data.
I joined @waysmeanscmte.bsky.social to demand answers on this Trump/Musk scheme.
Wrecking the agency for international development undermines our national security, whatever the motive.
Trump appointed white nationalist Darren Beattie as our diplomatic spokesperson to the world.
Beattie objects to "coddling the feelings of women” since “competent white men must be in charge if you want things to work.” Yet he shows that Trump Admin male competency is in short supply.
Last week's tragic plane crash hit close to home in Austin; our airport has had five near collisions. We need more air traffic controllers to keep our skies safe, but Trump’s approach means even less safety.
Blaming DEI policies for the loss of 67 lives is Trump’s way to distract from his failures.
