Tom Oliverson, M.D., a Republican member of the Texas State House representing the 130th district since 2017, recently posted several statements on his Twitter account addressing political and faith-related topics.

On January 8, 2026, Oliverson made a strong accusation against Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, stating: “This is criminal behavior by the Governor of Minnesota. Tim Walz belongs behind bars along with the Somali pirates he aided and abetted.”

Later that day, Oliverson shared his participation in a panel discussion about religious freedom at a Texas event. He wrote on January 8, 2026: “I was honored to take part in the Separation of Church and State panel at the @txvalues 2025 Texas Faith Fest. Faith is at the heart of everything I do, and it plays a real role in how I think about public service and Texas values.

If you want to watch the full conversation,”

On January 9, 2026, Oliverson responded positively to an unspecified topic or event with a brief message: “Outstanding! https://t.co/IsoTSmkrgS”
