Texas State Representative Brian Harrison, a Republican representing the 10th House district, expressed criticism of the Texas Senate and House leadership in a series of posts on September 4, 2025. Harrison’s remarks focused on the lack of legislative action to reduce property taxes and addressed other issues within the state legislature.
In his first post, Harrison wrote: “BREAKING: Texas Senate just announced it will adjourn sine die tonight… WITHOUT even debating a single bill to reduce property taxes.
Betrayal.
(At least their ridiculous hemp bill is also dead.)” (September 4, 2025).
Harrison continued his criticism later that evening by targeting House leadership, stating: “Texas House “leadership” thinks you’re stupid!
After not punishing quorum breaking Democrats… they’re proposing fake rule changes.
BUT…. with only hours left in this session… it will NOT punish the Democrats this session… AND… it will have no effect on next session!

He also commented on the fate of a proposed hemp ban in another post: “As the only TxLege Republican who consistently opposed the Texas Senate’s ridiculous, progressive, big government, liberal, nanny state hemp ban…
I couldn’t be happier that it’s officially dead…
And…
Couldn’t be angrier at the time wasted on it instead of property taxes! https://t.co/0FcN4pF2ZU” (September 4, 2025).
Harrison was elected to represent Texas’ 10th House district in 2021 after succeeding Jake Ellzey. His recent comments reflect ongoing debates within the Texas Legislature regarding tax policy and internal party disagreements over legislative priorities.
