My letter to @GovAbbott listing my 7 recommendations to get Texas working while still staying safe & healthy - which continues to be the goal.— Matt Krause (@RepMattKrause) April 14, 2020
I look forward to seeing Gov. Abbott’s proposal. He has been a strong and steady leader during these difficult times. God bless Texas! pic.twitter.com/PUhSyBQ12M
We're not going to comment either way on Krause's proposal. Others are more knowledgeable. Our observation is more fundamental than that.
During this entire fiasco, Matt Krause if the first person who's shown actual, credible. leadership.
Greg Abbott, by contrast, has vacillated between hiding behind (Democrat) local officials, hiding behind Trump, and corporate welfare for Goldman Sachs. In isolation, any of those might or might not be good policies [Note: 0 for 3, but that's really a separate discussion.] But it ain't leadership.
Then there's Dan Patrick...yeah, nuff said.
Which brings us back to Matt Krause.
It's not a secret that this website has grown more ambivalent towards Krause in recent years. We spent most of 2019 ripping on Krause's primary legislative "achievement." Still....
Likewise, it's also not a secret that this website floated the idea of Krause as speaker last month. This week's proposal is a good example why. It doesn't take a genius to see how Krause provides a tangible path between the world as it exists and the world as it should be.
Put differently: Krause has a knack for finding the least bad realistic possibility.
Bottom Line: Somebody had to do it.
