Team Bettencourt, the official account for Texas State Senator Paul Bettencourt, highlighted recent political events and education policy developments in a series of posts on X (formerly Twitter) in early February 2026.
On February 5, 2026, Team Bettencourt noted community engagement at a candidate event, stating: “Impressive turnout at the @KofC Primary Candidate Forum! My message to my fellow Knights is that we need an impressive turnout from Montgomery County in November! I want to thank the leadership of the Knights of Columbus for putting on this public forum for candidates without https://t.co/AAcEdBRSAq”.
Two days later, on February 7, Team Bettencourt shared information about strong interest in Texas’ Education Freedom Accounts program. The post read: ” JUST IN: By Friday afternoon, 62,000+ Texas families applied for $1 billion of Texas Education Freedom Accounts, per Acting Comptroller @KHancock4TX , breaking the news on the @KSEVRadio Amigos! Quite a successful rollout, and I quipped it’s a long way from the last decade”.
In a follow-up post later that day, Team Bettencourt directed readers to more official information: @KHancock4TX @KSEVRadio Read the official press release from the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts here: https://t.co/RIO7ozJhdb.
