Texas House, District 130
About this race: North-west Harris County. The incumbent wrote the amendment that became SB 3's House text, and separately wrote an exemption to his own amendment covering the medical programme and hemp research. He also joint-authored the medical expansion. Seven acts, more authorship than any other Harris member.

How this score is worked out
Seven kinds of act move this number, and they do not count equally. A recorded vote
counts 3, and so does authoring a bill or signing an executive action; signing on to
somebody else’s bill counts 2. A statement or a questionnaire answer counts 2 as
well, and an organisational endorsement counts 1. A vote takes its direction from the
bill, whose effect is set out in advance; the rest take it from our reading of what was
said, and each one below shows that reading and the reason for it. Acts shown with no
number were examined and deliberately left out of the arithmetic, with a reason given.
- 2024-03-05 questionnaire — Answered Support to legalising and regulating marijuana like alcohol for adults, and to three further liberalising questions, with a written comment endorsing all four, counted as +2 at weight 1.2
-
Questionnaire2024-03-05
Answered "Support" to all four cannabis questions in Texas NORML's candidate survey, printed in its Texas Marijuana Policy Voter's Guide for the primary election — expanding the Compassionate Use medical programme, reducing the penalty for possession of an ounce to a fine, legalising and regulating marijuana like alcohol for those over 21, and changing concentrates from a felony to a misdemeanour — and added the comment: "I believe all these positions are bipartisan and will help us fight mass incarceration, provide job opportunities, and expand healthcare."
⚠️This is 2024 evidence, not 2026. The guide is dated only to the year and is the edition for the 5 March 2024 primary.
⚠️The table is printed rotated and reading-order extraction attaches his comment to a different member, so his row and his comment were both confirmed by their position on the page.

Who is paying for this campaign
Campaign finance — Texas Ethics Commission
Texas Ethics Commission filer 88267, filed as
“Robinson, Brett A.”, treasurer appointment for State Representative, District 130, dated 2023-12-06. The name on the filing is not word-for-word the name on the ballot — both are printed above so you can check the pairing yourself before you rely on it.
Why there are no figures and no industry breakdown here.
Texas does not require a candidate to report a contributor’s employer or occupation —
the Commission’s own 2026 guide asks for the amount, the contributor’s name and
address, and the date, and that is all. So there is nothing in these filings to group into
industries, and we have built no such grouping rather than imply one. Separately, the
Commission’s bulk filing archive tells automated readers to stay out of it, and we
honour that, so we have read no individual Texas contribution record. Treat the itemised
question as unchecked by us, not as checked and found empty.
Read this filer’s own reports at
the Texas Ethics Commission (ethics.state.tx.us) → — choose Transaction Type
“Contributions”, then Search By “Filer ID” and enter
88267. The Commission’s search posts its results, so there
is no direct link to one filer’s page; the number above is what makes it one step
instead of a hunt.
Any grouping of contributors into an industry is weedvoter’s own classification, applied to employer and committee names exactly as filed. The Commission publishes employers and committees; it never publishes industries. OpenSecrets discontinued its public interface in April 2025, so nothing here is an OpenSecrets classification.
Money received is not a position. Everything on this card is money that changed
hands. It is not evidence that any contribution influenced any decision, nothing on it is
placed beside a roll call, and we make no claim about anyone’s motive.
For what Brett Robinson has actually done about cannabis, read the record above on this
page — the roll calls, the bills that carry their name, and the date of each one,
every entry linked to the document it came from. That is the part of this page built to be
judged, and it is the part the score is calculated from. No contribution on this card moves
that score by a cent.
