No. The five states that offset unemployment benefits by your Social Security are: Illinois, Louisiana, South Dakota, Utah and Virginia.
South Dakota and Virginia formally repealed their offset laws, but have a provision allowing them to reduce unemployment compensation by 50% of your Social Security benefit when the state unemployment funds drop below a pre-determined threshold. The long recession and high unemployment rate have triggered temporary (but indefinite) offsets in these states.

The issue is not with Texas, but with Florida. Florida might charge you with unemployment fraud because you would be drawing their benefits AND the Fed's SSDI. The Social Security Administration investigates very thoroughly before awarding their benefit. If THEY said you wouldn't be able to work due to a disability, Florida's requirements might be violated. If you qualify for SSDI, check to see if you should cancel Florida's benefits.
