A child detained in Dilley wrote: “I feel so much sadness and depression of not being able to leave.” If this doesn’t demand action from Congress, what will? These kids deserve better. www.propublica.org/article/ice-...

Grateful to worship with Pastor Richie Butler and the congregation at Saint Luke Community United Methodist Church today. His message on abiding in the Lord’s peace was a powerful reminder to stay grounded and faithful even in uncertain times. Thank you for the welcome and the wisdom.

Black history isn’t just something we honor once a year — it’s something we carry forward every day. It’s about the work still unfinished, the progress worth protecting, and the responsibility we have to keep pushing for justice and opportunity for all. open.substack.com/pub/colinall...

I don’t talk about this from behind a podium — I’ve worked shifts alongside Texans on the job. When construction sites are raided, work stops, costs rise, and families pay more. We need solutions that keep our economy moving — not policies that create fear. www.tpr.org/border-immig...

I’m honored to earn the @dallasnews.com endorsement — and committed to fight on behalf of working families in Texas.

TODAY is the last day to register to vote. If you care about the future of your community — this is how you make your voice count.

I’m glad Liam Ramos and his dad are finally being released. A child should never have been put through this. And Liam isn’t alone — there are still children in detention centers right now who should be at home with their families. We have to keep fighting for them.

Attention Texans: February 2 is the deadline to register to vote in the primary election. Your vote is your voice— make sure it’s heard. 🗳️ Go to dallascountyvotes.org to check your registration.

Hard work should get you ahead, not leave you further behind. But when rent, grocery prices, and bills rise faster than paychecks, that’s exactly what happens. Working Texans deserve an economy that works as hard as they do.

Texans are working harder than ever, but home ownership keeps slipping further away. That’s not an accident. It’s the result of policies that favor corporations over working families.

Corruption has a price tag, and Texans are the ones paying for it. It shows up at the grocery store and in your everyday bills. And the system always seems to work for the wealthy while working families get left behind.

Texans deserve leaders who will fight against corruption — not fuel it. Too much damage has already been done to our families, our kids, and our future. I will fight to hold our government accountable and protect our democracy. Here’s exactly how: colinallred.com/wp-content/u...

Congress is supposed to work for the people — not play the stock market with insider knowledge. I never traded a single stock during my time in Congress because when you’re elected to represent your community, that should be your only focus. Ban congressional stock trading. It’s that simple.

When members of Congress trade stocks, the system is rigged. They have access to information that everyday Americans will never see — then use it to pad their portfolios. That’s not public service. That’s corruption, and it needs to end.

I never traded a single stock. I never took corporate PAC money. My decisions in Congress were made for Texans — not special interests.

Honoring Dr. King means more than quoting his words — it means finishing the work. He fought for a democracy where every voice counts, and that fight isn’t over. Protecting voting rights, fighting for fair representation, and making sure no community is silenced is how we carry his legacy forward.

“Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.” Dr. King’s words ring true in Texas today as they did then. Honoring his legacy means showing up for our neighbors, standing up for what’s right, and doing the work to keep pushing forward. #MLKDay2026

Working hard should be enough. That’s why I’m meeting Texans where they are — working shifts alongside them and listening. For too many families in TX-33, costs keep rising while paychecks don’t. I’m running to lower costs, raise wages, and make the economy work for the people who actually run it.

I grew up watching my mom work hard and still have to make difficult choices just to get by. Too many Texas families are living that same reality. That’s why I’m in this fight — to lower costs and fight for working people.

Rising premiums are forcing families off their healthcare plans. That means parents skipping doctor visits, seniors rationing medications, and working families one emergency away from bankruptcy. We should be making healthcare more affordable, not less accessible. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

Government should work for the people — not the highest bidder. When megadonors pour millions into Trump’s super PACs to buy influence, working Texans pay the price. Working families deserve leaders who will stand up against corruption and fight for them. www.nbcnews.com/politics/pol...

Over 4 million Texans are going to see their healthcare premiums skyrocket, and Washington still has no deal to stop it. This shouldn’t be complicated: extend the subsidies, protect coverage, and make healthcare more affordable, not less.

Three years ago, a veteran reached out to my office for help accessing his VA records. We got to work and helped him secure an 80% disability rating. That’s what public service means — showing up for our community and getting the job done.

A North Texas father was shot inside a Dallas ICE facility last September, and his family is still reeling from the trauma. Trump has empowered ICE to terrorize our communities and tear families apart with zero accountability — this has to stop. www.cbsnews.com/texas/news/n...

ICE is terrorizing our communities — then and now. Families are afraid to go to work, to step out to buy groceries, to seek medical care. We must stand with our neighbors and speak out against these injustices.

4 million Texans — including thousands in TX-33 — depend on the ACA. They’re facing steep premium increases they can’t afford, and the House just voted with bipartisan support to fix it. The Senate must act now. This shouldn’t be political. It should be about helping families.

Enough is enough. ICE operates with zero accountability while communities pay the price. Real public safety requires transparency, not unchecked power. This chaos was encouraged by Donald Trump, and it's time for us to demand real reform. www.statesman.com/news/politic...

I’m grateful for the support we’re seeing across TX-33. This poll reflects the conversations I’m having every day — folks want leaders who show up, listen, and fight for working families. I don’t take that trust lightly, and I’ll keep doing the work to deliver for our community.

Five years later, the truth hasn’t changed: Our democracy survives only when leaders have the courage to defend it. I’ve seen what happens when extremism goes unchecked—and I won’t stay silent while Donald Trump continues to attack our democratic system.

I texted my wife: “Whatever happens, I love you.” That’s how serious January 6th was. Donald Trump’s mob stormed the Capitol and tried to overturn an election. This can never happen again, and I’ll never stop fighting to make sure it doesn’t.

When politicians trade stocks while families struggle to pay rent, something’s broken. Public servants should serve the public. thehill.com/homenews/hou...

As a civil rights attorney, I know due process matters. When deportations happen so fast that lawyers can’t intervene, the rule of law suffers. Texans believe in fairness — and we should demand it from our government. www.npr.org/2025/12/26/n...

Heading into the new year with the same commitment: Show up everywhere, listen to Texans, and fight like hell for working families.

Enjoyed catching up with former NFL players at the NFL Players Association meeting, talking about how football shapes you long after you leave the field. Football taught me discipline, teamwork, and resilience — lessons I carry into public service every day. 🏈

Small businesses shouldn’t have to fight just to keep their doors open. They deserve policies that help them grow and succeed.

While corporations post record profits, working families are rationing groceries and skipping medications. When working full-time isn’t enough to afford basic necessities, the system is broken, and we need leaders who are committed to fixing it. www.cnbc.com/2025/12/26/h...

When I served in Congress, I never traded a single stock. Not once. Not because someone forced me to – but because I believed it would be unethical to do so. That shouldn’t be remarkable. That should be the baseline. Read more here: substack.com/home/post/p-...

Families are doing everything right and still falling behind. The holidays should be a time for joy, not stress. We need leaders who will fight to lower costs and put working people first.

Our state is built on working Texans, and they deserve to have a seat at the table. Listen to our full conversation with candidate for 33rd Congressional District @colinallredtx.bsky.social — find it everywhere you stream Progress Texas Podcasts.

At just 10 years old, Cheryl Wyatt stood up for her right to an education in Dallas — showing the kind of courage that changes communities. Decades later, at 81 years old, she returned to the classroom and earned her degree. [Continued..]

Texas families are working harder than ever, but energy bills keep climbing — now heating costs are up too. I know what it’s like when the bills pile up. My mom and I lived it. Texans deserve leaders who make affordability a priority and deliver real results. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/17/b...

Happy Birthday, Aly! Celebrating you today and always — the boys and I love you so much 🎂🎉🍾

I’m proud to be endorsed by Council Member John Bowers III — a leader who shows up, listens, and works every day for his community. Thankful for the trust and support as we keep fighting for Texas families.

Proud to have the support of Dallas ISD Trustee Byron Sanders. Texas needs leaders who show up, stand firm, and put people first — and I’m grateful to have him with us.

In Texas, if you work hard, you ought to be able to afford the basics. Too many Texans are working harder for less, and even Christmas gifts are becoming too expensive as rent, groceries, and health care keep eating up paychecks. It's not right, and it has to change. www.nbcnews.com/politics/eco...

Dreams on hold. Curtains shut. Families terrified. That’s the result of Trump’s immigration orders in Texas. Policies that punish people who did everything right don’t make us safer — they make us smaller.

As Texans continue to mourn those lost and pray for the swift recovery of the missing, my prayers are with the families of all those affected. I’m grateful for our first responders and all those working tirelessly on search and rescue operations.

Deeply saddened by the tragic loss of life amid flooding in Central Texas. My thoughts and prayers are with the families and communities affected. This remains a dangerous and evolving situation, please stay safe and heed warnings from local response teams.

Como Fest was one for the books — small businesses thriving, neighbors connecting, and culture on full display. Big thanks to the organizers and Fort Worth police for safely bringing the community together, and to Councilman Williams and Commissioner Miles for the warm welcome.

The bill passed by John Cornyn and championed by Ken Paxton will make life more expensive for Texans. It’s going to kick more than 1 million Texans off their health care. It’s going to raise health care premiums. It’s going to raise energy costs by $800 a year.
