Urgent message from your Texas Senator — We Need You on Tuesday!

I’m sounding the alarm: for the first time in years, we Republicans are behind Democrats in total voting through early voting. Currently, we could lose Texas in this election. Let me repeat — we are in imminent risk of losing Texas in this election.

The impact of that for Texas and America is catastrophic. We’ll go back to open borders, defunding the police, and mutilating children to change gender. Everything we’ve fought for — secure borders, strong law enforcement, protecting our kids, limited government, and the values that make Texas strong — is on the line.

Do you want a conservative Republican or a socialist liberal democrat casting the tie vote for a Supreme Court Justice nominee?

It’s up to you if you haven’t voted yet. The numbers show we can still win this Tuesday IF, and only if, most people who have voted Republican in the past turn out. The Democrats are voting out of Trump Derangement Syndrome gone wild, out of pure raging hate. I’m asking you, if you haven’t voted yet, please vote Tuesday for a better reason: for love, love of our country and our state, love for our children and grandchildren and their future. That’s what’s on the line.

If you are a long-term Republican voter who has stood with us through the years, thank you. We need you now more than ever. Early voting is over. Election Day is Tuesday, November 3rd…TOMORROW! If you have not yet voted, please make the time to get to the polls. Bring a family member or neighbor who hasn’t voted. Our majority, our policies, and the future of Texas depend on it.

With Gratitude and Urgency,
Brent Hagenbuch
Texas State Senator, District 30

Thank you to all of our faithful Collinsville Fire Department team.

NATIONAL FIRST RESPONDERS APPRECIATION DAY!

October 28, 2026 | Honor • Support • Thank

Today, the Collinsville Fire Department proudly joins communities across the nation in recognizing National First Responders Appreciation Day!

Every day, dedicated men and women answer the call to serve, often putting their own lives on the line to protect others. Whether responding to a structure fire, medical emergency, vehicle accident, or law enforcement incident, these professionals demonstrate extraordinary courage, compassion, and an unwavering commitment to public safety.

Today, we extend a special THANK YOU to our local first responder partners:

Area Fire Departments: Firefighters who stand ready to protect lives and property, day and night.

Collinsville Police Department (CPD): Our law enforcement officers who work tirelessly to keep our community safe.

Whitesboro Fire/EMS: Their dedicated Fire and EMS professionals who provide lifesaving emergency medical care when every second counts.

Whitesboro Communications Center (Alarm/Dispatch): The calm voices behind the radio, our first line of communication during emergencies, and the vital connection that keeps our responders and communities safe.

Being a first responder is more than a job. It is a commitment to serve others, often during their most difficult moments. It means missed family dinners, sleepless nights, holidays away from loved ones, and answering the call regardless of the circumstances.

To every firefighter, police officer, EMT, paramedic, and emergency dispatcher, your dedication, sacrifice, and professionalism do not go unnoticed.

We are especially grateful for the strong partnerships between our local agencies. Working together, we make our communities safer, stronger, and better prepared for whatever challenges come our way.

Today and every day, we HONOR your service, SUPPORT your mission, and THANK YOU for your sacrifice!

Please join us in thanking the incredible first responders who serve and protect our communities!
