Great ! More drama !

I don't tweet, but I'd sure like to see what he said & not just a reference to it by a 3rd party.

Don't see anything from the Gov last night saying that.

Many thanks R.A.! So for right now, we cannot verify if Abbott actually made that reference.....making it a rumor, and rumor only unless someone else can substantiate what the Governor allegedly said. So I'm discounting it.

I have a Twitter account that I never use and I know nothing about how Twitter works. Here's a link to a Twitter page listing Tweets under the hashtag #txleg. https://twitter.com/hashtag/txlege?src=hash" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; The alleged Abbott tweet is there and if you click on the "view photo" link, so is the image. Since I don't know how Twitter works, I can't say if all tweets under a hashtag show up in two places or only one. Remember Sen. Ellis' and West's support of the Huffines Amendment?

Chas.

I see one from the Austin American Statesman from 18 May but that's it. I'll also confess to not completely understanding Twitter....

I strongly support this message. #txlege @TexasGOP

I guess the above (From Gov Abbott's personal Twitter account -- not the official Governor account) is the Tweet in question. I guess I interpreted it at face value not a subtle hint about not supporting the amendment. Tweet did come out an hour or so after passage out of the Senate though.
