Kicking off Hispanic Heritage Month with a playlist of my favorite tunes! You can list on Spotify at tinyurl.com/TMFSpotify and on YouTube at tinyurl.com/TMFPlaylist25 🎶 #votolatino #hispanicheritagemonth #latinoheritagemonth #sanantonio #texas

Happy Hispanic Heritage Month! It’s time to celebrate who we are and be proud of the progress we continue to make—especially in the face of ICE raids and DEI bans. We are what makes this country great. 🔥 I’ve made a playlist of my favorite songs to celebrate our heritage: tinyurl.com/TMFPlaylist25

Today, we remember the thousands of lives lost on September 11, 2001 and the families still grieving today. We honor the courage of the first responders who rushed headfirst into danger. #NeverForget

I’m a big tax guy, and I know folks find it confusing — but it’s extremely important to understand to see the larger picture of how Republican leadership is targeting Democratic cities. SB 10 was one of Abbott’s priorities, but thankfully that bill never made it to his desk because we killed it.

September is Suicide Prevention Month, and today, 9/8, is National #988Day to raise awareness of the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline you can call, text, or chat with 24/7.

Last night, the House and Senate adjourned ending the second special session. This special session has been a prime example of what Republicans care about, and it ain’t you. Session may be over, but the work isn’t done—I’m still fighting for you every day. #txlege #texas #democrats

Happy Labor Day! Today, we’re honoring the people that have continued to move our country forward 🤝 I’m proud to fight for workers every day in the Texas Legislature. #txlege #laborday

This is unacceptable–full stop. Y’all keep saying we’re better than DC, but you’re worse! At least in DC Dems control their own fate and don’t suck up to the Speaker if he’s going to pander to this BS! I’ve got socks more senior than Cody Vasut. Come and try to take my seniority. Game the F*@$ on!

👀 ARE YOU PAYING ATTENTION? 👀 Underneath the sham redistricting bill, Republicans have an entire agenda to steal your rights. They want you to tune out, to give up. Don’t let them win. Stay informed, stay involved. Keep calling, keep watching. #txlege #texas #transrights #sanantonio #democrat

📢 REDISTRICTING FIGHT UPDATE 📢 Stay tuned, stay engaged—this fight isn’t over. #redistricting #txlege #texas #democrats #txlege

"Even though the governor may try to sign it into law this coming week, he's going to find himself answering to an injunction in federal court, and that's going to be the next step." Listen to my interview here: omny.fm/shows/chewsv... @chewsviews.bsky.social @heartlandsignal.bsky.social

The question everyone’s asking: was it worth it? Yes. Undeniably yes. #redistricting #texas #democrat #txlege #democracy #bbc

You’ve heard a lot about these rigged maps hurting minority communities, but here’s two specific examples. The Republicans packed a Black district so that they aren’t voting and using their voting power in any other district.

Thank you for showing up, leaving comments, and fighting racist gerrymandering every step of the way. Your efforts did not go unnoticed—these horrible maps affect all of us, and together we will keep pushing back. 💥👊 #redistricting #texas #txlege #democracy #democrats

"We are the test case, and if the party in power gets away with it here, it’ll spread to other states, piece by piece, map by map, until the people have no power at all." Read more here: www.democracydocket.com/opinion/mart... #txlege #redistricting #democrats #democracy @democracydocket.com

We will have our day in federal court. I will not stand by and let our community get trampled just so the House Republicans can please Trump. #txlege #redistricting #texas #votolatino #votingrights #latinovote

Thank you, @tmftx.bsky.social! 🔥🔥🔥 "The House voted down an amendment offered by Rep. Trey Martinez Fischer, D-San Antonio, to add a section to the bill saying that the map complies with Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, which prohibits discrimination against voters on the basis of race."

Thank you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social for your continued support! Had to make sure you got a shirt—you’re part of our team! #txlege #democrats #democracy #texas #illinois #redistricting

Thank you Rep. Nicole Collier for holding the line.

TX house dem @tmftx.bsky.social calling on senators to break quorum next: "i wish the senate would step up. they’re in a position to do something. i wish they would. that’s up to them. and that’s up to you to put the pressure on them. don’t give them a pass.” www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

I’m here in Chicago with @indivisiblechicago.bsky.social ! Thank you to everyone who is showing up across the country today! #redistricting #indivisible #chicago #texas

People in Chicago are standing up for democracy with @tmftx.bsky.social, @jamestalarico.bsky.social and @texasdemocrats.bsky.social.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. #redistricting #texas #txlege #democrats

Do something—or get out of the way. That’s it. That’s the post. Read more here: www.salon.com/2025/08/06/t... #txlege #texas #redistricting #democracy #democrats

I’ve been getting this question a lot: why didn’t I stick around to fight on the House floor? We had to leave the state to raise the alarm & bring this fight to the national arena. The silencing of Latino and African American voices is bigger than one district, one state—it impacts all of us.

Earlier today we wrapped up a great episode (that bridges multiple state lines) w/ TX State Rep. Trey Martinez Fischer @tmftx.bsky.social about what's been going on in TX and how NC can help. Go to OneTexas.org to help the TX Dems fight back against this attack on our democracy. #ncpol #txpol

In this political game of map drawing, the biggest losers are always communities of color. It was awesome to share this message at the National Museum of Mexican Art. We’re all connected by our communities, our heritage, our experiences. This is much bigger than one district—it’s about one people.

As I told @tmftx.bsky.social when he joined me earlier today on my radio show on @heartlandsignal.bsky.social, we are all Texans now and happy to join them in their fight for democracy. Be sure to join this IG live event Monday with @votolatino.bsky.social to find out how you can help.

@tmftx.bsky.social I just listened to your podcast with @marcelias.bsky.social and I wanted to thank you for your courageous heroism. Keep up the great work!

Trey Martinez Fischer & TX Dems are risking it all to defend fair maps while Trump & the GOP scheme to rig 2026. They’re standing firm against threats & lies—but they can’t do it alone. 📅 Mon 8/11, 6pm ET | 5pm CT — Join @votolatino.bsky.social live on IG to learn how to fight back.

Leaving Texas was not a choice any of us took lightly—missing first days of school, family time, and just being away from our communities again. 🔗 Read more here: texastribune.org/2025/08/08/tex…

On a scale of 1 to fascism, where are we? We'll talk about that & more Saturday with: + @willbunch.bsky.social + Texas Dems @kendallscudder.bsky.social & @tmftx.bsky.social + @deanbaker13.bsky.social + @billscher.bsky.social 🎧 1-4pm CT @heartlandsignal.bsky.social 🤳Stream bit.ly/3DAcG8s

this TX redistricting fight isn't @tmftx.bsky.social's first time being threatened with arrest for leaving the state to block a gerrymandered map. here's what he says it was like in 2003:

We proudly stand with our Texas Democrats who are fighting back against voter suppression, gerrymandering, and authoritarian overreach. When they take a stand for us, we show up for them. #StayStrongTXDems #TXDeservesBetter #50501SATX #VisibilityBrigade #ProtectDemocracy #TexasResistance

Here we are doing #VisibilityBrigade in #SanAntonio #Texas this morning during rush hour! @visibilitybrigade.bsky.social @50501satx.bsky.social @indivisible.org

As a Fis(c)her boy, I know that even though love is hard and complicated, it always prevails. While our Governor is out here picking Jeremiah, you can always count on me to fight for Conrad. #thesummeriturnedpretty #tsitp #txlege #democracy #conrad

📢 AMERICA, WE HAVE A PROBLEM! STAND UP! FIGHT BACK! 💥👊 Amazing art by tattooedboy123 on IG! Thank you my Holmes High homie 🙏🔥 #txlege #democrat #democracy #texas

Today is the 60th anniversary of the passage of the Voting Rights Act. In 1965, Texas’ own Lyndon B. Johnson the historic act into law, prohibiting racial discrimination in voting. It’s serendipitous that today I am taking a stand against racist maps alongside my democratic peers.

Proud of my congressman standing up for democracy!! Thank you @tmftx.bsky.social!!

Here some TX Dems that broke quorum.
