Power Bills Move In Texas House Debate On Governors Powers
In Austin, two bills advancing gubernatorial financial authority await floor debate after approval by the House Appropriations Committee.

Hilary Doran notes the fund would still need appropriations to be meaningful. The panel also moved to restore 18.3 million for medical school construction and addressed debt payments from the May and June primaries. The committee endorsed 7.5 million for Texas Tech Medical School and 6 million for UT Medical School in Houston, funding diverted earlier to avert budget cuts.
