Is it true that Texas experiences earthquakes, including some induced by oil and gas wastewater disposal?
Yes. A Wikipedia list of Texas earthquakes states that Texas experiences earthquakes and that many have been induced by petroleum-extraction waste disposal, and a peer-reviewed study links West Texas oil/gas fluid injection to possible induced seismicity.
