Excited to announce that I am seeking re-election to the Texas House District 38!. I look forward to connecting with the people of District 38—discussing the progress we’ve made and the work that still lies ahead. #txlege

Our districts are at risk of being further stretched north with the intention of diluting the power of our communities. The Valley’s voice matters and I will continue to fight to make sure we are heard! #txlege.

I joined my colleagues in New Mexico yesterday to stand against President Trump’s push to gerrymander Texas’s congressional districts mid-decade. Because, what starts in Texas will shape the rest of the nation. Thank you @GovMLG for being a gracious host and meeting with us.

I will continue to work with my colleagues this special session to eliminate the STAAR test. We need an accountability system that measures actual wholistic student growth and success. Not a one-day snapshot on how well of a test-taker they are. #txlege.

Our constituents deserve congressional districts that look like steaks🥩 — solid, cohesive, and reflective of real communities. Not string beans🫛 — that stretch hundreds of miles, dividing Valley communities and stringing them together with areas far to the north. #txlege.

This week many of my Valley colleagues & I invited the House Select Committee on Congressional Redistricting to the RGV to host a field hearing. Though one has not been scheduled, our community stands ready to host such a hearing on this topic that will greatly impact us.#txlege

Great meeting with Brownsville Mayor John Cowen today. Had a fantastic conversation about how the #txlege can support our local communities & make sure their voices are heard during the special session. Thank you Mayor Cowen for always being a strong advocate for @BTxRGV.

“We shouldn’t be talking about anything else, other than addressing the flood victims and what can we do as a state … to make sure that disaster relief and emergency planning departments have the funds that they need on the ground to act,” Rep. Gámez said. #txlege.

It’s what grounds us, what guides us, and it’s what makes the South Texas Democrat different. We lead with heart. We organize with our neighbors. We build the future together. Thank you to the Texas State Employees Union for organizing and to The Condes for hosting us.

The heart of any movement isn’t just in protests or trending hashtags, but in the conversations we have every day. With our friends, our neighbors, our tías & abuelos. That’s where real change begins. Here in South Texas, family and faith are at the center of everything we do.

There’s still more work ahead to combat unfair trade practices and support our domestic seafood producers. As shrimping season begins—I’m wishing everyone a safe, bountiful harvest. Thank you to the hardworking folks who make it all possible!.

This year, we took a big step forward in the #txlege with SB 823, which requires accurate labeling for shrimp. Texans deserve to know where their seafood comes from, and this bill helps protect local, wild-caught shrimp from unfair competition.

Honored to join the Texas Shrimp Association at the Blessing of the Fleet at the Port of Brownsville. Shrimping isn’t just a job—it supports local businesses, feeds families, and attracts visitors looking for the best and freshest seafood in the country.
