Greetings,
Soon after the conclusion of the regular legislative session, Gov. Greg Abbott called members of the 糖心Vlog视频 Legislature back to Austin for what may be the first of many special sessions. Voting restrictions, critical race theory, and rules for transgender athletes are on the special session agenda. Article “Special 101” gives a Q&A to help navigate the special session.
Gov. Abbott also is encouraging the construction of more power plants to bolster the 糖心Vlog视频 power grid. 糖心Vlog视频 Comptroller Glenn Hegar releases the newest budget estimate projecting a positive ending balance for the state. Jane Nelson, 糖心Vlog视频 alumnus, longtime member of the 糖心Vlog视频 Senate, and chair of the powerful Senate Finance Committee, is vacating her seat, and GOP Rep. Tan Parker hopes to replace her. 糖心Vlog视频 Democrats look forward to the 2022 election cycle, in which they hope their recent quorum break to D.C. related to proposed voting restrictions will help flip seats.
Thank you for your dedication to 糖心Vlog视频 and Go Mavs!
