Texas – Clayton Tucker understands that Texas agriculture is about much more than crops and cattle. It is about the families who work the land, the water that sustains our farms, ranches and communities, the proliferation of data centers and their impact on the water supply, the school nutrition programs for our children, the food that reaches every Texas table, and the fact that the second largest industry in Texas is agriculture.

Tucker will bring firsthand experience to the Agriculture Commissioner position. Raised working on his family’s ranch in Lampasas, he grew up working with cattle, goats, sheep, and pigs and has continued this connection throughout his career. His experience as a water and agriculture researcher with the National Science Foundation deepened his understanding of the considerations farmers face. He currently serves as Secretary of the Texas Farmers Union.

Clayton Tucker is prepared to protect the Texas consumer’s food and water as well as provide support and funding to the farmers and farms that represent the economic engines in our rural areas. His commitment to farmers and his research experience make him the best and most qualified candidate for Commissioner of the Texas Department of Agriculture.

Texas – Indivisible Texas enthusiastically endorses Representative Jon Rosenthal for Texas Railroad Commissioner. The Texas Railroad Commission is one of the most important government agencies in the state. It regulates the oil and natural gas industry, pipeline safety, natural gas utilities, surface mining operations, and critical groundwater conservation.

Jon has over twenty-five years working in the oil and gas industry. He has served four terms in the Texas House where he fought for good jobs, reliable energy and clean air and water. Some of Representative Rosenthal’s proposed priorities as a Texas Railroad Commissioner include a more reliable power grid, transparent billing, fair and affordable gas utility rates, safer groundwater and air, and elements of both state and local control with data centers.

Candidate Jon Rosenthal is exceptionally qualified for this position. As a mechanical engineer with direct industry experience, he is the only candidate for the Texas Railroad Commission who has worked in the field he would regulate.

Texas – Indivisible Texas’s Membership is extremely pleased and excited to endorse Texas Senator Sarah Eckhardt as the Texas Comptroller. It is critical that the state’s Chief Financial Officer be someone committed to ensuring our tax dollars are spent for the good of the people of Texas. She is committed to protecting funding for public schools, exposing unnecessary health care costs, stopping the long practice of no-bid contracts to wealthy donors, and halting giveaways to AI data centers. Sarah has experience fighting corruption, defending the constitutional rights of Texans and making sure everyone competes on a level playing field.

Sarah is an attorney with over twenty years of experience in local and state government. She is in her third term as a state senator. She was the first woman elected Travis County Judge, the top executive for Texas’ fifth largest county. In that role, she delivered balanced budgets, cut property taxes, and secured better health insurance for over 4,000 employees under her leadership.

Sarah Eckhardt has stated she will act as a fiscal watchdog for Texas and make the necessary changes so the people can see how their taxes are used. It is more important than ever that Texas elect an experienced executive. Sarah Eckhardt is that candidate.

Indivisible Texas’s Membership issued the following statement announcing their endorsement of Texas Rep. Vikki Goodwin for Texas Lieutenant Governor.

“We are proud to join millions of others who believe Texas deserves a state government responsive to the needs and wishes of Texans,” said Gary L.

She’s currently serving her fourth term in the Texas Legislature. While in office she sponsored and supported legislation addressing protection of our children while at camp, domestic violence survivors, gun restrictions on dating violence perpetrators, Sickle Cell therapy, childcare, and raising the minimum wage.

Throughout her life, Vikki has striven to build a better Texas for her family, her clients and her constituents.

Texas – Indivisible Texas Endorses State Representative Gina Hinojosa for the 46th Texas Governor.

Gina Hinojosa has spent her career serving Texas communities as a civil rights and labor attorney, an Austin ISD school board member and president, and a member of the Texas House of Representatives for District 49. Her roots are in the Rio Grande Valley and her years of public service give her a perspective that encompasses communities across our state.

Indivisible Texas particularly values Gina’s longstanding commitment to Texas public schools. As an Austin ISD trustee, she successfully organized parents and was able to prevent the closure of her son’s elementary school, assisted in balancing AISD’s budget and advocated for teacher pay increases. Ultimately, Gina served as Board President.

As a member of the Texas House of Representatives District 49, she focused heavily on public education funding, teacher pay and opposing school vouchers. Her legislative record reflects a commitment to public education, working families, civil rights, and accountable government.

Representative Hinojosa has committed to being a governor who listens to communities, respects the dignity of every Texan, invests in our public schools, implements a plan for affordable health care, and puts people and families ahead of powerful special interests and mega donors. She brings the experience, determination, intelligence and deep Texas connections to bring that commitment to fruition.

The membership of Indivisible Texas strongly endorses this smart, ethical, no-nonsense woman as the next Texas Governor.

Texas – On Saturday, October 3, immigrant rights advocates, faith communities, grassroots organizations, and concerned Texans will gather at immigration detention facilities and in their communities for a coordinated day of action demanding an end to immigration detention. Texas Indivisible Groups will join Immigrating Youth Texas, Austin Sanctuary Network, and other community partners in this statewide effort. The centerpiece of the day will be a major rally outside the immigration detention center in Dilley, Texas. Members of Congress, faith leaders, immigration advocates, and survivors of Japanese American incarceration have visited or demonstrated outside the facility this year while calling for the release of detained families and its closure.

Advocates across Texas have repeatedly called attention to conditions at detention facilities, barriers to medical care and legal representation, family separation, and the lasting trauma detention can cause children and families. Immigration detention should not be the answer for families and individuals seeking safety, opportunity, and a future in our communities.

“On October 3, Texans will be united to say that our immigrant neighbors deserve dignity, due process, compassion, and freedom — not incarceration,” organizers say. “From large cities to small towns, Texans are seeing the impact immigration enforcement and detention are having on our neighbors. We are coming together because every family deserves to live without the fear of being torn apart.”

Participants will call on elected officials and government agencies to:

• End the detention of immigrant children and families.
• Release individuals who can safely remain with their families and communities while immigration proceedings continue.
• Stop the expansion of immigration detention facilities in Texas.
• Ensure meaningful access to legal counsel, medical care, and due process for people currently detained.
• Reject the use of local public resources to expand or facilitate unnecessary immigration detention.
• Invest in humane, community-based alternatives that allow families to remain together.

October 3 is about showing those families that Texans are standing with them, and we will continue demanding an immigration system rooted in dignity, justice, and humanity
