This Week in Austin...
As you may have read in the paper, some degree of conflict has occurred this week in both the House and the Senate. On Tuesday, Rep. Jim Keffer (R-Eastland) announced that he will run for Speaker, and this news affected work in the House this week. Also on Tuesday, members of the Senate engaged in a heated discussion about a voter ID bill. As a result, the Senate did not meet on Wednesday for regular business. A great deal of work still remains in these waning days of the session.
