A growing number of Texas lawmakers will not be seeking reelection in 2022. So far, 20 open seats in the Texas legislature will appear on ballots next year. Sixteen of those seats are in the Texas House and four are in the Texas Senate, totaling 15 Republicans and five Democrats. Legislators across Texas are using shifting district boundary lines as an opportunity to make their own changes, either seeking higher office or stepping out of civil service. The vacancies will be closely-watched, offering pivotal races in the attempt to flip party alignment within new district boundaries. 

Follow the money in these races as campaign finance data becomes available.
Each week, we bring you a noteworthy number from the money in Texas politics. We've been doing a Texas NOTW since our database was brand new. (See them all here.) Who remembers when Transparency USA was still Transparency Texas and serving a single state?

Thanks to all of you who have been with us since the beginning, and have supported our nonprofit as we continue to expand.
