Tom Oliverson, M.D., a Republican member of the Texas State House representing the 130th district since 2017, posted a series of statements on his Twitter account addressing political and faith-related topics.
On January 8, 2026, Oliverson made strong allegations against Minnesota Governor Tim Walz. In his post, he stated: “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 focused on religious liberty at a Texas event. He wrote: “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,” (January 8, 2026).
On January 9, 2026, Oliverson posted a brief message expressing approval for an unspecified subject: “Outstanding! https://t.co/IsoTSmkrgS”
Oliverson has served as a state representative since succeeding Allen Fletcher in 2017. His tenure has been marked by active engagement in legislative issues and public discussions about faith and governance.
