A conference committee of five House members and five senators in Austin is racing to bridge a 2.2 billion gap between the House 67.4 billion and Senate 69.6 billion budgets for 1994-95. Gov. Ann Richards vetoes the handgun bill, while debates over social services and a proposed personal income tax dominate sessions. Senate leaders push tax restraint as a path to a November ballot decision, with West Texas lawmakers voicing concerns over potential tax impacts.
