Connally hints at special sessions over liquor control
Austin Texas AP Gov John Connally says he may call a special session to address the drinking liquor controversy and budget issues. He criticizes regulatory boards for influence over appropriations and vows to pursue conflict of interest reforms while supporting liquor by the drink. He notes support for liquor by the drink among most Texans despite a militant minority and cites TLCB investigations. He applauds a House liquor law committee, comments on TLCB leadership, private clubs, land fund transparency, and staffing changes, while defending prison conduct probes as unfounded.
