State Rep. Gene Wu, D-Houston, is taking over as the Texas House Democratic Caucus chair in the aftermath of his party’s bruising election cycle.
Join The Texas Tribune at 8 a.m. Tuesday, Jan. 21, in Austin or online when Texas Tribune politics reporter Jasper Scherer sits down with Wu to discuss his party’s priorities for 2025 and how he’ll navigate a legislative session in which hardline Republicans tightened their grip on political power in the state.
Doors open at 7:30 a.m. at the Tribune’s Studio 919, 919 Congress Ave., Sixth Floor, in Austin, and the hourlong conversation will begin at 8 a.m.
