Texas Political Brief

AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Texas Power Shift: Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick says Texas has “turned purple” after Democrats won the governor’s race, flipped a U.S. Senate seat and took control of the Texas House for the first time in more than 20 years. Senator-elect James Talarico is urging Democrats to seek bipartisan reforms with President Trump. 2027 Agenda: Lawmakers have filed nearly 1,500 bills, including proposals to curb data-center tax breaks and incentives, regulate their power and water use, and legalize recreational marijuana. HISD Transition: Houston ISD’s state-appointed board says planning is underway to return control to elected trustees, potentially by mid-January, as Governor-elect Gina Hinojosa vows to end the takeover. Data Center Fight: New bills would restrict development deals and tax breaks for data centers, reflecting growing pressure over their effect on utility costs and water supplies.
