The news of Texas covered today includes:
Our Lone Star story of the day: Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has asked a district court to hold Beto Pancho O’Rourke in contempt, fine him, and detain himuntil he obeys the Temporary Restraining Order the state alleges he has violated over raising money for Democrats who fled the state to break legislative quorum.
Our Lone Star story of the day is sponsored by Allied Compliance Services providing the best service in DOT, business and personal drug and alcohol testing since 1995.
Speaker and Lt. Governor say they will gavel the 1st called session sine die on Friday if a quorum has not been obtained in the House. Governor Abbott will then call another special session, the 2nd called session, to begin immediately.
Texas Supreme Court sets and “expedited briefing schedule” over the case of whether the quorum busting equals an abandonment of office by Democrat legislators. Its expedited schedule is actually about a month long and seems to aid Dems in their run out the clock, again and again, strategy.
Lubbock city officials tell you not to worry, they are setting the property tax increase proposal at the maximum allowed without voter approval but it’s just to hold the public hearings – they may set a lower rate. This is a trick. By setting it at the maximum and having the hearings, then they can come back with a bit of lesser tax increase and not have to endure public hearings.
