Gerrymandering isn’t new — but here’s what is: a president calling a governor asking for five seats, and a Republican Party that just capitulates to those demands. Why? To dodge voter backlash for failed policies and broken promises. That’s not democracy. It’s dangerous.

Let’s talk about that crazy Supreme Court ruling on the maps…

Today's Supreme Court decision isn't the one we hoped for. But our fight for fair minority representation is far from over—in court or at the ballot box. In next year's election we can send the message that voters choose politicians, not the other way around.

The Attorney General is an independent, executive office for a reason. It’s supposed to stand up for Texans — not bow to political pressure or abuse its power. This is our chance to return the office to the people it was meant to serve.

1/8 Did you know an average Member of the European Parliament pockets ± €23,500 every single month? That’s €282,000 a year mostly tax-free.

Texas Republicans are breaking the law — again. Without any legal authority, the Comptroller removed women and minorities from a state program supporting small businesses. They're attacking hardworking Texans to destroy the separation of powers. It's time for new leadership.

The Attorney General is suing to end state work-study programs because they aren't funding Christian instruction. Yet again, Republican leaders are putting a political agenda above working Texans. As AG, I will expand opportunity, not fight the programs helping people succeed.

The Attorney General should be the people’s attorney, not the president’s lapdog. Honored to talk at #Tribfest about my vision for a Texas AG that takes on price gougers, roots out corruption, and honors the rule of law. That’s the job, and it’s time Texas had a good lawyer.

This video sketch follows black cats wandering through the desert at night as strange UFOs glide overhead. Beams of light sweep across the landscape, turning the quiet scene into something mysterious and otherworldly. I love mixing the familiar with the surreal—cats, desert

Texas women deserve an ally in the Office of the Attorney General. Under my leadership, the OAG will not use the law to terrorize women, their physicians, and those who help them receive vital care.

Sent home, Amanda went into septic shock. Because her doctors were threatened with going to jail, she spent 3 days in the ICU fighting for her life. This is the reality Republicans have created, and the Attorney General has been their most effective weapon.

The week that Texas' abortion ban went into effect, Amanda's water broke prematurely. Doctors said with certainty that she would lose her baby…but they couldn’t help her. Because the fetus still had a heartbeat, they couldn’t risk providing the care Amanda needed.

Texas women are living in fear of their Attorney General. They worry pregnancy complications could be fatal — and put loved ones at risk of criminal prosecution. Thank you, Amanda Zurawski, for sharing your story about the dangers and pain caused by a heartless, lawless AG.

BREAKING: Attorney General Paxton filed an appeal to uphold Republicans’ racist congressional maps. These are the same maps a Trump-appointed judge rejected for violating the constitution. Texans deserve an AG who defends their rights, not one fighting to take away their voice.
NEW: I filed an appeal in SCOTUS to defend Texas's new congressional map. Radical left-wing activists are abusing the judicial system to derail the Republican agenda and steal the US House for Democrats. I am fighting to stop this blatant attempt to upend our political system.

This week, a Trump-appointed judge tossed out Republicans’ gerrymandered maps. Another judge halted Republicans' law forcing the Ten Commandments into classrooms. Two courts, two losses — I think it's time for a Texas Attorney General who can actually read the Constitution.

As Attorney General, I will return the office to its purpose: ✅ Defending the civil, political, and human rights of ALL Texans ✅ Protecting consumers from scams and making markets competitive ✅ Enforcing environmental laws and holding polluters accountable ✅ Ensuring true

The power of the Attorney General’s office has been abused for the benefit of the wealthy and well-connected. Instead of protecting Texans from threats like fraud, price-fixing, and market abuse, the Texas OAG has wasted time and resources chasing headlines with bogus attacks on

In 2018, I flipped Texas Senate District 16 — a seat Republicans held for over 30 years. By 8 points. Since then, I’ve passed over 130 bills, leading on access to health insurance, child health, consumer protection, grid security, government transparency, and basic fairness in

Before elected office, I spent decades as an attorney, a small business owner, and problem-solver. I worked with people at their best and their worst. That taught me something simple: the law should be a force for stability, clarity, and fairness — not chaos or greed.

I didn’t come to public service the traditional way. I grew up the son of a VA psychologist and a social worker — two people who spent their lives helping veterans and families in crisis. Watching them, I learned that service is not a slogan, it’s a calling.

I just filed to run for Texas Attorney General with my daughter by my side. I’m running because I believe the Attorney General should stand between Texans and anyone who would exploit them — whether it’s a corporation or a politician. I will always fight for you. Let's do this!
