Texas

📢 Advocacy Drive - Contact your representatives to push for change

Contact Representatives

No Citizen Ballot Initiative Process

Texas doesn't allow citizen ballot initiatives. However, that doesn't mean change is impossible.

Direct legislative advocacy is the path forward. By contacting your representatives and making your voice heard, you can push for public code policies at the state level.

Your phone calls, emails, and letters to your U.S. Senators and Congressional representatives matter. Tell them why public code is important to Texas.
