Gov. Abbott blasts Supreme Court ruling preserving birthright citizenship
By Houston Public Media
· June 30, 2026

The Supreme Court's decision preserves birthright citizenship for future Texas-born children, leaving in place a constitutional guarantee with major implications for the state's immigration communities.
Why this matters in The Woodlands
The Woodlands , with its historically conservative voter base, may be a key area to watch in Ted Brown's efforts to court disaffected Republican voters. As a master-planned community with a strong presence of professionals and families, The Woodlands has typically leaned Republican in past elections. However, if Brown can successfully tap into dissatisfaction with the party's nominee, he may be able to siphon off some of these traditionally conservative votes. The fact that Brown received a record number of votes for a Libertarian candidate in the 2024 Senate race suggests that he may have a viable path forward in appealing to voters who are looking for an alternative to the major parties. It will be interesting to see how Brown's campaign resonates with voters in The Woodlands and surrounding areas of Montgomery County.
