A&M is mostly full of trash people politically but I still love my dumb school. At least Michael Young seems to have a better-than-the-average-Texan head on his shoulders when it comes to some of the recent garbage events that have happened on campus.

Charles Get-Out posted:While a bill does have to pass both the House and Senate to reach the Governor's desk, only one version of the bill needs to if the bill has a companion. The HB may be pending in committee because the SB is the one moving through the process for instance. Thanks. Do you happen to know whether that show on the bill tracker under the senate bill or will it show up as a new entry? The specific issue I'm watching is the short term rental bill(s) stripping all ability to regulate them from cities.

Shifty Pony posted:Thanks. It's tracked under the bill number as filed if you are using TLO & will carry that same number through the whole process. All House action on the bill will have an H next to it, Senate will have an S. If you're looking at SB 451, you can see the H next to when it was received by the House. At this point, I think you will be watching SB 451 through the whole process; May 11 is effectively the last day for the House to move new HBs onto the normal calendar, so any non-L&C HBs that will move are being voted out of committee now-ish & HB 2551 has not been touched by House Urban Affairs since 4/18. Caveat, committees/calendars have been really weird this time around because of the Straus/Patrick spat so this could switch up randomly.

quote:I’ve kept my pledge to fight for hard-working Texans, and I’ll keep doing that. However, with the threats posed by Russia and North Korea, coupled with the reckless behavior of this Administration and their failure to invest in economic opportunity for the American people, at this time I believe I can best continue that work by focusing on my duties in the House Foreign Affairs and Intelligence Committees. So I guess Joaquin Castro's not going for Cruz's seat. Altho that was a bit obvious since he only ever brought it up in the context of asking for donations instead of as part of a larger plan.

Here's an article with more info... http://kxan.com/2017/05/01/reports-of-multiple-people-stabbed-on-ut-campus/ Had a friend who does personal training at Gregory Gym who was about 25' away from the whole thing. He only head screaming and saw a bunch of people running, but it has really shaken a lot of people around here. No idea what the hell was behind this.

Someone I was doing a group project with yesterday made a similar claim, saying he wanted to call one of his friends who organized that dildo rally at UT last August and ask her how well the dildos helped out. In other news, I'm very glad I'm not in a group with that person.

Yea, it seems like a lot of the top comments on the various news articles about the stabbing were people asking "so, did the dildos help stop the guy?" The fact that the gun nuts are still so focused on that dildo protest is a sure sign that it was really effective.
