The last time that Texas House of Representatives District 37 incumbent reported his campaign contributions and expenditures, there were 69 contributors.
Of the 69 contributions, 49 were from Political Action Committees, 12 were from lobbyists, four were from lawyers (tax collections and political consultants), and only five were from Brownsville, including two from his law firm Roerig, Oliveira & Fisher, LLP, one from a firefighters' PAC and two from individuals (Ernesto de Leon Sr. and Dr. Asim Zamir, 7.2 percent).
Sixty one of the 69 contributions (88.4) came from either PACs (from Texas and out-of-state) or lobbyists. Only two individuals (De Leon and Zamir) live in Brownsville. (2.9 percent). It's intriguing to note that Oliveira got $30,000 ($5,000 first, later $25,000) from the TREPAC/TX Association of Realtors PAC, Austin.
This has paid off well for Oliveira whose campaign and finance report for the filing period from June 1 through December 31, 2017 lists contributions of 126,107.70 from the PACs and lobbyists who want to keep the state rep who has been in office for the last 34 years in Austin to do their bidding.
That report covered June 1 through December 31, 2017. http://rrunrrun.blogspot.com/2018/01/oliveira-again-shows-hes-pacs-lobbyists.html
The report due 30 days before the election covering January 1 through January 25, 2018 filed February 5 is not much different.

The report due 30 days before the election covering January 1 through January 25, 2018 filed February 5 is not much different.
In that report, Oliveira lists $36,056.50 in contribution from the following:
1. ACT for Texas Classroom Teachers Assoc. (PAC), Austin, $1,000
2. Allen Boone Humphries Robinson LLP, Houston, $1,000

7. HOSPAC-State (Texas Hospitality Assoc.), Austin, $1,000
8. HomePAC of Texas (Texas Assoc. of Builders), Austin, $1,000
9. Jackson Walker LLP PAC, Dallas, $1,000
10. Kamm, Robert, Lobbyist, Austin, $250
11. Linebarger Goggan Blair & Sampson, delinquent property tax collectors, Austin, $2,500

18. TEXPAC Texas Medical Association PAC, Austin, $1,500
19. TEXPAC Texas Medical Association PAC, Austin, $2,500
20. TRUCKPAC PAC of Texas Trucking Industry, Austin, $500
21. Texans for Lawsuit Reform PAC, Austin, $500
22. Texas American Federation of Teachers, Austin, $1,000
23. Texas Apartment Association, Austin, $2,000
24. Texas Automobile Dealers Association, Austin, $1,000
25. Texas Lobby Group, Austin, $1,000
26. Texas State Teachers Association PAC, Houston, $1,000
37. Undavia, Khyati, Pharmacist, $5,000
38. Union Pacific Corp. Fund for Effective Government, Washington, D.C., $500
39. Van De Putte, Henry & Leticia, San Antonio, Lobbyist, $500
So out of 39 contributors, only two were from individuals and only one is from District 37, in Brownsville. The rest were from PACs and lobbyists. Why would they put down their good money to keep Oliveira there for two more years to make it 36?

It is alleged for these donations Rene The black Mamba Oliviera had to sign an agreement with the donors, that he would not have sex with their wife's or girlfriends at any time now or in the future. It has been rumored that he is contemplating returning some of the donations, as his pussy diviner was working overtime. Come on Alex Dominguez you need donations not oussy, win a clean race.
A la MADRE.
folks there you have the list of evidence, RENE has sold himself out a long time ago-ah 34 years ago I believe, I only need one more term to finish what I started 34 years ago, MAMON.
Still voting for Rene, bro!
Rene The black Mamba Oliviera is relying on his black book to keep him in Austin, as it has done so in the past years. This time the embarrassment of being exposed as a fraud, and a cheating Scumbag will be to much for him. If he is innocent of these accusations why doesn't he get a good lawyer and Stop the publication of the book. I know you are thinking he is a lawyer, but I said a good lawyer that don't talk with his dick. The truth be known he was lucky in the Armando Villalobos case, I was told he used a pack of pampers a day during the trial, he even admitted he was caught with his pants down around his ankles. Will the Rhino skin Rene handle the scandal to the Oliveira name, I don't think so.
Hey Juan, don't forget to mention that both Oliveira and Alex Dominguez have bent over for LNG money too.
A question is: Will Rene Oliviera really marry Capt. Boob Sanchez's ex-wife or is he just fooling her, just as he has fooled local voters for 34 years?
Alex Dominguez has my vote. He has been a great public servant for the time he has been a County Commissioner. He is an honorable man.
Rene Oliviera is a womanizing wino and has failed his constituents for his entire tenure in the legislature. He is loyal to the people on this list, not the people of this district. These donors gave him 5 times his state salary....shouldn't that tell us something...he is living off them and for them. DON't VOTE FOR RENE!!!!!!!!
"Vote Early, Vote Often," the Texas way! Alfredo Alonso has my vote, doesn't seem like he is beholden to megadonars/super PACS.
Rene is like the cowardly lion of the wizard of oz, hides at cobbleheads, sold out, vendido to the pacs outside of his district, folks time to put out the trash, 34 years and we still don't learn, dale gas.
For sale, for sale, for sale, for the last 34 years, I voted for alex, vamonos.
Sticks and stone may break my bones but your insults will never get my vote bola de pendejos.
When I cause my next accident and kill one or more people, you can't blame me as I gave you enough warnings of what I was like. Know one takes heed of warning signs anymore, you know that I will fuck a frog if it will stop hopping, but you let me get near your wife's or girlfriends. How many times must you be warned, if I control the cops and the idiot state troopers, what chance do you have.
Folks what we realistically do need are TERM LIMITS for all Elected seats, city, county sate and federal, so we wont have these professional politicians in office for way too long
