Carlton cared deeply for the @TexasObserver & always supported staff. The TXO community is feeling his loss today and will continue to for the weeks and months to come. We'll have more to come about Carlton, but for now, read this interview from our 70th: texasobserver.org/carlton-carl-t…

Carlton Carl was one of the first board members I got to know when I joined the Observer in 2017. He hosted the staff at his Martindale home after a retreat about a month after I started the job. He opened his home and his scotch collection to us, in true Carlton fashion...

A note to our @TexasObserver community from interim EIC @gusbova texasobserver.fundjournalism.org/donate

BREAKING: A *rare* abortion rights win in Texas – voters in the conservative city of Amarillo have voted AGAINST an abortion travel ban that would have empowered residents to sue anyone who "aids and abets" abortion access across state lines. Bkgrnd: texasobserver.org/far-right-abor…

Helluva story up today from @stevanzetti--especially relevant for Dallas voters soon headed to the polls. Pour a fresh cup of coffee, it's a sprawling investigation you'll want to finish: texasobserver.org/dallas-hero-in…

THREAD: I've been digging into an Austin lobbyist named James Frinzi and his company Multiband Global and allegations of an elaborate fraud scheme. It's a long, wild saga, one that involves his friends Ken & Angela Paxton. #txlege texasobserver.org/paxtons-lobbyi…

Just 36 hours in and we're already half way to our goal of raising $5K! Help us hit our goal early by making a gift today: texasobserver.fundjournalism.org/give/?campaign…

We're able to do this kind of work thanks to the support of our readers. We're running a mini-drive this week with the goal of raising $5,000 in 5 days—make a gift today and help us reach it! texasobserver.fundjournalism.org/give/?campaign…

As we rapidly approach election day, having as many eyes on the halls of power is critical, but that need doesn't go away on Nov. 6. Reporting like @by_jmiller's cover story on the Paxton's is the result of months of watchdog reporting. texasobserver.org/paxtons-lobbyi…
