Texas air pollution bill faces open meetings clash in Texas Legislature
In Austin the Texas Legislature pressed amid hours of debate as Senate and House shift focus to air quality and open meetings. The Senate backed the Texas Clean Air Act of 1967 with amendments while the House approved open meetings legislation but faced floor questions. The session nears May 29 with more than 1200 House bills and 580 Senate bills still in play, and action on penalties for unfair sales practices also debated.
