Session in Austin Enters 20th Day Amid Deadlock
The Texas Legislature continues beyond its planned brief session into a fourth calendar week and the 20th day. A segregation bill and a potential insurance row in the Senate hinder adjournment while Gov. Price Daniel’s agenda appears largely fulfilled. The House met in an extraordinary Sunday session with only 88 of 150 members present and adjourned to 2 p.m. today along with a similarly constrained Senate session, as constitutional rules on consecutive-day adjournments force unusual meetings. A possible ruling by Atty. Gen. Will Wilson on insurance board appointment legality adds pressure, while a voter-registration bill to publish organizational rolls looms. The House and Senate are stalled over a House version becoming a new bill after Senate changes.
