"Now, Lord, look on their threats, and grant to Your servants that with all boldness they may speak Your word,"
Acts 4:29
As we observe House committee hearings for this week, one trend is emerging:
- Public Ed - 24 bills up this week.
- Public Health - 33 bills up.
- Ways and Means - 24 bills up.
Here's the problem: We don't have the bandwidth to read all those bills.
Here's the other problem: Given the way this session is going, a bunch of those bills are going to pass.
That's where Greg Abbott's veto is going to come into play.
Whatever his other flaws, historically speaking, Greg Abbott has been a reasonably decent last line of defense against bad bills.
We're going to need that more than ever this session.
Bottom Line: It's a sad statement on where we are in the session, but it's reality....
