Texas legislators in Austin push hard for a spending curb aimed at safeguarding the pay as you go constitutional provision. The move, led by Rep. John Carlos Hoye, provoked a heated House debate and involved consideration of declaring an emergency on a $124,000 state budget item for the state motor fuel department.
