House Observing First Five Day Work Week In Austin
Austin observers report the Texas House keeps a five day work week with a brief Thursday vote on a bill empowering the State Board of Insurance Commissioners to regulate insurance securities. Rep. Joe Pyle of Fort Worth frames the measure as requiring full disclosure, while Rep. Jerry Sadler presses for a penny beer tax and opposes the gasoline tax hike. The Senate cools on local bills as it considers unfinished business ahead of the session. A separate note from Miami, Florida, mentions a 12-horse field likely for Hialeah Park’s Widener Handicap worth $100,000 added purse.
