I saw somewhere they went to recess until 3 because there was a scuffle at the speaker's bench over something on local and consent calendar. Not sure what happened or who was involved.

Thanks. Once they get their greedy claws on our money they never want to let it go. They always have some way to repurpose our money.Papa_Tiger wrote:http://www.mystatesman.com/news/state-- ... 1nyIk3SzJ/mojo84 wrote:Can you provide a link to the article?

From the ever unbiased Austin American Statesman -
The bill would cost the state $22 million in lost revenue over the next two years, according to the Legislative Budget Board.
State Rep. Nicole Collier, D-Fort Worth who voted against the bill, said that the money should be spent on more pressing matters like schools or child welfare. She also said that guns are being given special treatment.
