Money Bill Cuts Made Money Bill Cuts Made
Controversial riders phasing out Texas Southern University law school and shielding cotton ginners from pollution controls were removed from the 1970 state spending bill by House Appropriations Committee Chairman W S Heatley. Conference talks trimmed the $5.7 billion two year plan to a one year version. Heatley said Speaker Gus Mutscher and Lt Gov Ben Barnes requested removal of the TSU rider. A separate rider shielding cotton gins was preempted by an air pollution bill approved earlier. Another rider limiting the Department of Public Safety to two helicopters was also dropped.
