Congratulations to @jamestalarico & @GinaHinojosaTX on their historic wins.

Their victory represents hope for a Texas where every community is seen, its dignity is respected, and is part of its future.

Much work ahead but one thing is clear: people’s voices matter.

When Anthropic warns investors in its IPO prospectus that advanced AI could pose “catastrophic or existential risks to humanity,” self-regulation alone won’t cut it.

The stakes demand serious public policy.

I’m glad the Regents spoke out.

At moments like this, we should remember the example we set—and the kind of principled leadership we want future generations to follow.

"When I stood on the sidelines at DKR-Texas Memorial Stadium Saturday night and looked up at the seats filled with incredible fans, I saw Longhorns. It’s the same remarkable view I have at graduation ceremonies and anytime I’m on campus. I’m proud to celebrate all our Longhorn students today and every day. Thank you for making us proud." Kevin P. Eltife, Chairman of the UT System Board of Regents

As a Longhorn myself who’s come back to UT as faculty, I see in these students future leaders who will do great things for Texas and our country.

Love the spirit on Forty Acres after Longhorn’s amazing win.

I heard UT graduation this year looked like this. I didn’t believe it. The problem is now obviously far worse than anyone imagined.
