If he doesn't want to talk to and/or represent you today , you can talk to him at the next election. Throw the bums out...all of 'em! It's the American and Texas way!AFCop wrote:Just got off of the phone with one of his staffers, who last week when I spoke to him told me someone would call me back with the Senator's position on SB 354 but never did, and he told me that 1. The Senator voted in favor of the bill last session 2. All his analysts are telling him to oppose the bill 3. Since he supported it last session it can be assumed he will this session and 4. That it was HIS decision to make and only he knew how he would vote.
I then asked if I could speak to him or what was protocol at the Capital and he told me no I could not speak to him and the only way to meet with him would be to talk to his scheduler and that she always defers to the analysts. So if he is my Senator why can I not know how he will vote before he votes and why is he so unreachable.... Is it really too much to ask for 5 minutes..... I mean he is supposed to vote for his constituents and NOT HIS way.
Needless to say I was very disappointed but I did urge the staffer to let him know to vote to suspend the rules and vote in favor of the bill.
On the positive note the staffer did say they were receiving a lot of calls about this bill.
