You are breaking the law driving while using a mobile phone. Very Dangerous! Where is @TxDPS when needed?

Please help us Senior Citizens keep our Homes !

Not ok to drive distracted. Filming and driving are you kidding me?

Just as a fun mental exercise, where are the schools going to go instead to get the money they need to sustain their ability to Operate and pay for their Maintenance?

So you want kill funding for public schools so you can funnel money into religious institutions and indoctrinate children? Not to mention giving larger tax breaks to people with larger & higher values homes. Sounds pretty stupid.

Sounds like more school defunding to me.

Either cap property taxes after the property is a certain age or eliminate completely. The govt is forcing hardworking families out of their homes from taxes. There can’t be an endless 10% every year. That’s insanity. #DoYourJob

Very exciting and long overdue for sure!

@ByGrace26 You’re absolutely right! As a Swedish American I’m troubled that the US population is putting up with these confiscatory taxes that Sweden got rid of long ago: - property taxes - wealth taxes - inheritance / death taxes This is DOUBLE taxation and not ok in a free society!!

You're a State Rep. now. Your make Jason drive you to the #txlege while you film in the passenger seat! Be safe out there!!

Also they've been heavily invested in de-funding the public schools. Creating so much havoc over non-existent threats of 'porn' and 'CRT' to provide a pretext for such cuts. They want public money for private religious indoctrination.

There's a real push on by Republicans to make the private schools a bundle while insuring that children without monetary advantage will get shafted into generational poverty, because of a lack of adequate education. You're all dispicable!

Property taxes are so high because of the mismanagement of the Republicans. This is just a ruse to destroy public education because he wasn't able to force his voucher plan through the legislature.

Thank you from lakeway Texas

Dumb bitch why you driving and filming this

All for lower property taxes!! School Districts (DISD) feel they have an unlimited bank account and love to spend “other people’s money”. Enough is enough!!

Maybe if they didn't spend so much time attacking transgender rights, they might get to what they are supposed to be doing. "Renting our property from the government?" And here I thought we providing education for our children and funding our local government services. Silly me

You're going to kill someone. You don't seem bright enough to multi-task.

Thank you.

WTH lady you are endangering other drivers by doing this.

Get rid of all propert taxes and then shutdown the appraisal districts. Appraisal districts are taxation without representation.

But what is the plan to fund public schools?!? I don’t like the way it’s currently funded but if we reduce M&O, how will schools get that much-needed funding.

I hope your aren't actually driving while recording a video. That would be illegal in the state of Texas. Remember that nobody is above the law

What’s the catch? Where are you going to make up for it? Higher sales tax? Implement State income tax? What?

Now about that $6000 you took for working one day of the first special session…..

Stop saying we are renting our property from the government. That is just right-wing BS. Whatever you're planning, we should all be quaking in our shoes, or boots as the case may be.

So just to be clear, you want to defund Maintenance & Operations for our public schools?

Please drive and tweet later. This is such a bad look

They know When? White House

Wow this is about time primary homes shouldn’t have such high taxes New York is killing it wit taxes on property
