@LoewyLawFirm Larry Meyers on the tx court of criminal appeals is the last Democrat to hold statewide office in Texas in 2013, when he switched parties.

Real ones know this man was the last Democrat to hold statewide office in Texas Good bit of trivia to impress your friends #txlege

@AngelaPaxtonTX Fantastic panel with serious speakers (tho you had the line of the conference...) and moderator who understand what's at stake in a world where every Texan is on the front line.

I spoke on the “Governing the Future: Innovation, Regulation & Emerging Technology,” panel at the #TexasPolicySummit today where we discussed how Texas can lead in an era of rapid technological advancement. As the Chair of the Senate Committee on Economic Development, I am especially focused on how emerging technologies like artificial intelligence will impact our workforce, our economy, and our daily lives. #txlege @TPPF

@ZackAbnet @Burrows4TX @TPPF Huge forTX and produced water. Ty Mr. Speaker, Texas Tech, Abilene Christian, Joe Heppert, Natura, XLab, Blair Schroeder, Abilene Chamber, @DrewDarbyTX @august

"We cannot permit and build nuclear reactors fast enough... I'm really excited about the prospects for desalination." - #Txlege House Speaker @Burrows4TX on the question of water and energy in Texas.

@GovHotWheels_TX Ty for your leadership on $1.4B TX Chips act, which has brought multiple key supply chain components to create tx jobs and investment and deepens tx criticality in this important industry. @DrGregBonnen ,@joanhuffman, @adrianarcruz , DavidDaniel, stephen davis.

Semiconductors power our everyday lives, and are included in pretty much anything you can think of -- from smartphones and cars to advanced AI and defense systems. Texas ranks No. 1 for semiconductor manufacturing capacity and is the nation's top exporter of semiconductors for 15 years in a row. We are connecting the nation and the world from right here in our great state!

@DrSchwertner Absolutely, Senator. These well calibrated approaches are essential to ensuring US/TX continued edge in chip design, fabrication and packaging over China. They serve as a solid model for reshoring other edge technologies and supply chain components.

Proud to see groundbreaking underway for the Texas A&M Semiconductor Institute! The Institute will play a leading role in advancing innovation, training our future workforce, reducing reliance on foreign supply chains, and strengthening the Texas economy.

@RepMcCaul @TAMU Ty to you and @JohnCornyn for this transformational investment in future of Texas. Tremendous Jumpstart to reshore more of the supply chain we need in our country to maintain overmatch.

As the author of the CHIPS for America Act, I couldn’t be more proud to see @TAMU leading the charge to ensure our state — and our nation — is not reliant on foreign countries for semiconductor chips. This institute will strengthen Texas's economy and bolster our national security for years to come. #GigEm!

@MichaelEWebber The txgov and txlege smartly created multi billion dollar Texas Univ Fund & sizable new funds for semi, hypersonic, space & energy research. Our world needs tx to accel research in robotics, quantum to maintain overmatch w China. Folks like GregBonnenMD have made big strides.

Texas should create its own state-funded research program to offset these dramatic proposed cuts.

@JLopas 100%. Thanks for your investment here. Texas and Texas cities and regions can't take for granted that investment and job creation will come here with permitting, tax limitations or energy restrictions. We have to plan thru it.

I’ve been having thoughts along these lines recently. Texas’ current openness to development shouldn’t be taken for granted. There are many forces trying to change this.

@Burrows4TX Smart to have House study an important set of national security, economic competitiveness and successfully reducing trade reliance on China. Good steps.

Today, I issued interim charges for House committees of the 89th Texas Legislature to guide our work ahead of the next legislative session in 2027. These priorities build on our recent progress, strengthen accountability in government, reduce inefficiencies, and ensure key initiatives are carried out as intended—while laying the foundation for a strong 90th Legislative Session. Thank you to our committee chairs and all who contributed their insight throughout this process. Together, we will continue advancing the freedom and opportunity that drives Texas. #txlege

@GovHotWheels_TX @sxsw Totally correct. Sxsw has been connecting drawing interest and funding to our Austin and Texas ecosystem for decades. State inv in space, chips, autonomy, cyber, hypersonic and 3x basic research fuels what's next. Thank you for your support, Governor.

Texas is THE innovation hub! This year, @sxsw celebrates its 40th year — drawing innovators and creators from all over to Austin, Texas for a week-long festival of idea-sharing and collaboration.

@suffiyanmalikk @WeThe_Builders @intangibleai Thank you for all you do to build the innovation ecosystem and reindustrialize our nation.

Scenes from the 4th annual Austin DeepTech Dinner I hosted. It’s great to see how people who met here have started collaborating and growing over the last few years. When Merle first came, Proto Town was just starting out and found some of their early residents/customers here. They met companies like Aquaria, TerraFirma and Aeon here who they started working with later. Allen Control Systems was still 10 people or so working out of Luke Allen’s house, now they are a team of over a 100. One of the construction automation companies is looking at doing nine figures in revenue this year, 2 years ago it was just cofounders running experiments who had not closed their pre-seed yet. Base Power was in stealth when I first met Justin, now they are a $3 billion company. Investors showing up at these do $1-5m checks on average and can be the first checks at $100-250k. Thank you to @intangibleai and @bharatvasan for making it possible this year and to @lukeallen1138 for letting use his house again. Thank you @AsraNadeem, my partner in all of these! And Jenny and Juan for helping invite folks. And to our friends and family for taking care of logistics and operations.

Today is primary Election Day in Texas! This is shaping up to be a high stakes election to shape the future of our state and our country. Your vote matters, so if you haven’t voted yet, make a plan to cast your ballot today. Find polling locations and more information here: votetexas.gov

@Michael7ucci And Texas can look at how they can facilitate reshoring components of the supply chain currently in China, further enhancing our country's resilience and reducing our vulnerabilities

Texas is modeling how states can bolster national defense. States have tremendous resources and personnel to deepen national resilience by protecting critical infrastructure and securing the domestic assets upon which overseas operations depend 👇

Gov Abbott working with the state tools provided to accelerate reshoring supply chain to our country.

@MPMaterials Thank you for your further investment in Texas jobs and American resiliency.

Meet 10X MP’s next‑generation rare earth magnet campus in North Texas 10,000 tons across the $MP U.S. platform $1.25B+ investment 1,500 engineers & manufacturing jobs 120 acres of industrial scale Commissioning in 2028 A decade‑defining step toward American supply chain independence 🇺🇸

Proud moment for UT. A major partnership with the Texas Space Commission and the U.S. Space Force will expand space research, support our students, and strengthen Texas’ leadership.

@sdamico Come to Texas. We need metal here as well.

Apparently if you run a metal forge in the Bay Area local enviro types will try to use the government to kill your business. Yet they use stuff made of metal…

@MissAnhthu Clearly put

Most capital is flowing to the visible layers, the factories, the contracts, the end products. But returns concentrate at the bottlenecks, because that’s where scarcity lives. If you’re allocating without knowing where the real constraints are, you’re optimizing the wrong part of the system. Ad Astra exists to redirect capital into the heart of the industrial base, to the bottlenecks. Inspired by Oliver Hsu's A Primer on Factory Economics for Startups, a factory's capacity is determined by its constraining resource. Improve anything other than the bottleneck and you haven't improved the system. This is true at the facility level. It's also true at the national level. The industrial base is the building. If you know what’s inside, how it operates, what’s between the walls, that’s the leverage. That’s what you optimize. The real constraints are the workforce shortages, capital mismatches, material dependencies, and infrastructure bottlenecks that no single company or industry can solve alone. The investors aren’t just financial. They’re capital allocators asking where to deploy, government leaders asking what policy to change and what resources to allocate, and operators asking what to build and where to expand. All of them need to move at speed and can’t afford to guess wrong about where the real constraints are. That’s what we map. That’s what we solve.

@rcanedesignwrks If you haven't already, you might reach out to Opportunity Austin, who helps companies interested in metro austin to locate or expand.

The countdown is on! One week from today I'll be in Austin, TX to scout out some potential locations for myself, my family and our technology. We will also be in discussions regarding our pre-seed round, if you want to get onboard with a whole new type of robotics company solving real threats in the real world now then reach out!

Strong leadership to reshore supply chains to Texas and ensure Texans and our allies are less reliant on the whims of our comeptitiors and adversaries.
