They are to be commended--the “big box” store planners--for the many “edges” they’ve honed to make it to the ladder’s top for in-store shopping.
Gov. Greg Abbott issued an executive order last week banning state agencies, cities or counties from creating a “vaccine passport” requirement.
We are not at the end of the tunnel when it comes to the pandemic which has dominated the news, limited our access to family and friends, and generally made recluses out of all of us. Those of us on the “mask-side” look down our noses… well if the fog in our glasses clears, we look down the ramp at those who “don’t believe.” I would say that most of the “mask-side” is either vaccinated or on the way to being fully vaccinated. The rest of the population either sees the vaccine as a danger to their own health or a waste of resources when “this too shall pass.”
As we gather together this Easter weekend and celebrate the joy of life eternal, I wanted to give a quick update from Austin. Session is in full swing and it's been a busy week at the Capitol with some late nights. I laid out a few bills before Committees and we voted on a number of high priority bills this week ranging from protecting the right to life to expanding rural broadband access to strengthening election integrity. Read more for the full update on what we're working on for Senate District 30 and the State of Texas.
It’s an expression tossed about regularly; calling it “trite” would be an understatement for the proverb originating in 12th century Germany that is still valid today.
The latest report on child maltreatment fatalities and near fatalities, compiled by the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services, indicates 251 children in Texas died in fiscal year 2020 due to abuse and neglect. That figure includes 28 children who died after being left unattended in hot vehicles.
Easter is one of those holidays which probably started out very serious. Church, candles, singing, processions, somber services on Maundy Thursday and Good Friday, then Easter lilies and eggs on Sunday morning. Over the years it has gone from Holy, Holy to “Holy-Moley… that Easter Bunny walks like Uncle Fred.”
For years wind energy projects were called Wind Farms. They are not farms - they are massive industrial complexes that begin with and wastefully survive on your local, state and federal tax dollars.
Imagine a wind turbine taller than a 62 story building. Those monsters are proposed for projects in Jack and Clay Counties.
Thursday, March 18th , 150 property owners met at the Twin Lakes Community Center to learn how foreign wind energy complexes de value our properties.
Abilene Christian University’s stunning 53-52 win over the University of Texas at the NCAA Basketball Championship Tournament is a great example of why the annual event is called “March Madness.”
It was ACU’s second trip to the “big dance,” and its first win in the biggest basketball upset since David bested Goliath. Abilene radio sportscaster Grant Boone mentioned, “Blessed are the poor” during the broadcast, pointing to UT’s $200 million athletic budget and ACU’s upwards of $20 million.
A Texas Senate committee on Friday passed an elections bill that would tighten the state’s voting rules by limiting extended early voting hours, requiring proof of disability to qualify for mail-in voting and prohibiting drive-thru voting. Senate Bill 7, sponsored by Sen. Bryan Hughes, R-Mineola, is one of Gov. Gregg Abbott’s legislative priorities this session.
