Texas Legislature Faces Long Slugfest Over Budgets
The first called session of the Thirty-second Texas legislature enters its fourth week with about sixty topics pending and a slow march toward passage. Only two bills have reached the governor for approval, a mileage per diem act and an $8000 Confederate home repair grant, while a $10 million general appropriation bill moves through a free conference committee. Expected veto trimming could cut near $1 million, with debates over highway paving, reapportionment, and a uniform text book bill shaping the agenda as lawmakers brace for a likely failure to reenact districts or reapportion in time for adjournment. The drive to push a text book bill faces a strong lobby and governing controversy.
