Extension of Legislative Term Likely in Texas
Austin April 15 An extension of the legislature’s term seems likely as unfinished talks persist with only 20 working days left. Both houses met on a Saturday for the first time this session and next week may see major bills advance, notably a state highway bond amendment awaiting floor action or voter submission. The Wacdal-Williamson plan for state bonds to redeem local highway bonds and fund a state highway system drew strong opposition and only 6 votes in the house on second reading, while bond advocates remained hopeful for enough support on final passage.
