Texas Legislature Ends Week With Rapid Bill Push
Texas lawmakers sped through more than 100 bills in a climactic Thursday session led by a $1.25 an hour minimum wage measure and related reforms. The Senate approved key bills on the Texas State Technical Institute, park agency splits, a Permian Basin university, and the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission, with the House scheduling floor fights on several measures. The Texas Water Plan was adopted, detailing a 12 to 13 million acre feet import from the Mississippi River by 2020, while screwworm cases dwindled to eight in March as control efforts continue across 184 counties. The education group grants totaling over $600,000 were also announced to attract teachers amid shortages. State welfare and residency issues faced new debate, and Land Office policies drew attention as well.
