Texas State Representative House District 70 - Collin County | Working to fix our grid & Democracy 🇺🇸
108 years ago, women voted for the first time in a primary. Minnie Fisher Cunningham helped make it happen. I joined her grandchildren & TDPChair Scudder at Sam Houston State to present a check investing in the future. We honor the women who opened doors by keeping them open for the next generation.
36 years ago yesterday, President George H.W. Bush signed the Americans with Disabilities Act into law. Today, I’m asking AG Ken Paxton and HHSC why Texas continues a lawsuit challenging federal disability integration protections. Disability rights are civil rights. #TXLege #ADA #Section504
100 days until Election Day! 🗳️ Our democracy works best when everyone participates. Today is a great reminder to check your voter registration, make a plan to vote, and encourage your friends and family to do the same. Your voice matters. Check your registration: votetexas.gov #HD70
The strongest communities are built when we take the time to listen to one another. Joined ISPU for a thoughtful conversation with community leaders on American Muslim communities. Listening and learning from our neighbors makes #HD70 and North Texas stronger. #Community #NorthTexas #TXLege
IVF is deeply personal to me. On World IVF Day, we celebrate the hope IVF has brought to millions of families. It isn’t a luxury. It’s essential medical care, and every Texan deserves the freedom to build their family with their healthcare provider. #WorldIVFDay #HD70
Honored to attend Frisco's City Council meeting on July 7 as Mayor-elect Mark Hill was sworn in. Congrats to Mayor Hill and thank you to outgoing Mayor Jeff Cheney for his service. Though Frisco is outside #HD70, our shared regional growth makes us strong partners. #CollinCounty #CommunityLeadership
Change starts with a conversation. Join me on Saturday, August 1, for our next #HD70 block walk! There's no better way to connect with neighbors, hear what matters most, and help build a stronger community. Bring a friend and comfortable shoes! Sign up: www.mobilize.us/collindemocr...
Mental health is health. 💚 Nearly 1 in 5 U.S. adults experience mental illness, yet too many communities still face barriers to care. During Minority Mental Health Awareness Month, we’re working to break stigma and expand access for every Texan. #MentalHealthMatters #HD70
They say youth are the future, but in Collin County, they’re the right now. ✊ Grateful for the @collinyds endorsement! Since 2004, this @TexasYDs chapter has empowered leaders ages 14-40. Together, we’re bringing a bold, inclusive vision to the TX House. 🗳️💙 #HD70 #PlesaforthePeople #CCYD
Our office joined the Dallas Disability Pride Flag Raising standing alongside advocates working to make N.TX more accessible. Thanks to everyone who continues to lead and remind us that accessibility isn’t an afterthought. It’s an essential part of building a community where everyone thrives. ♿️💙
Voters should choose their representatives, not the other way around. I'm honored to be endorsed by Eric Holder and the National Democratic Redistricting Committee. I'll keep fighting for fair maps, voting rights, and elections where every Texan's voice counts. #HD70 #CollinCounty #FairMaps
Workforce development starts w/investing in people! Visited the IBEW Local 20 Apprenticeship Center to learn how they’re training the next generation of electricians. Focusing on hands-on learning & career readiness builds a stronger workforce and supports the infrastructure our community depend on.
🍎 Just 20 days until the first day of school! Teachers who live or work in #HD70 can stop by our free Teacher Supply Shelf for classroom essentials while supplies last. 📧 District70.Plesa@house.texas.gov 📞972-423-1227 Please call or email ahead before visiting! 📚
Promises matter. Results matter more. Students with disabilities were promised up to $30,000 through the voucher program. Now we know fewer than 25 students statewide received the maximum award. Texas families deserve transparency, accountability, and results. #HD70 #TXLege #SchoolVouchers #TEFA
roud to have earned the endorsement of Planned Parenthood Texas Votes. I’ve worked on HB 47, HB 136, HB 3940, and SB 31 to strengthen survivor protections, expand Medicaid access, and improve maternal and infant care. Goal: more accessible, responsive health care.
TOMORROW, come out for a Meet & Greet from 4:00-5:30 PM in #HD70! I’m looking forward to real conversations with neighbors about what’s working, what’s not, and what we need to fix together. 📍 Address provided upon RSVP: buff.ly/mGihYCb #PlesaforthePeople #MeetAndGreet #CollinCounty
South Asian Heritage Month is a time to celebrate the rich culture, history, and contributions of South Asian communities in Collin County and across Texas. I’m grateful to represent a district where this diversity strengthens our schools, businesses, and civic life!
A little Texas-sized welcome for 600 new teachers in Plano ISD! 🍎 We partnered with Medical City Plano and the Plano Chamber of Commerce to send welcome bags, including Texas Capitol stress balls — a small reminder that our community stands behind our teachers. Welcome! #HD70 #PublicEducation
Mark your calendars for Labor Day Weekend! I’m honored to serve as the keynote speaker at Unite to Fight: Building Coalitions, Funding Victory, a luncheon bringing together volunteers and community leaders from across Collin County. 🎟️ Tickets are available now: txdp.cc/U2F2026 #HD70
The best ideas don’t begin at the Capitol. They begin in living rooms, around dinner tables, on front porches, and at gatherings like Mondays w/ Mihaela. Thank you to everyone who joined us at Sharky’s! If you’ve never joined us I’d love to see you next time! #HD70 #CollinCounty

Thank you to TSPE for the endorsement. I believe in doing things the Texas way. Build it right. Maintain it. Do not wait for a failure to prove a point. Engineers bring facts, standards, and accountability. Focused on safety and smart infrastructure for #HD70. TxLege #CollinCounty
Collin County is at the center of the conversation about the future of Texas politics. Thank you to KERA News for highlighting the growing importance of our community. As I shared, #HD70 proves that when people show up and work together, change is possible. Read more: bit.ly/4wmc9Sy
