AGC-TBB, TLR, TAB, NFIB, Texas REALTORS, Chemical Council, Texas Civil Justice League, CPAS, Hotels and Lodging, TMA, Texas Trucking Association, multiple Chambers, and many others urge lawmakers to vote no on anything like SB51 by Sen. Hughes
From the statement, which is now signed by even more business groups:
"We believe strongly that
legislation of this kind represents an unprecedented intrusion into the liberty
of employers to operate their businesses as they see fit. Texas’ successful
business climate is premised upon this fundamental liberty, but this
legislation undermines it by placing employers in an impossible position
between federal and state mandates. It will also subject employers to
potentially crippling litigation costs at both the federal and state levels
with no ability to protect themselves against this risk."
Check this out for
the whole thing.

There is growing concern among GOP members that the longer the legislature stays in Austin, the more chances there will be for Don Huffines’ news releases to be copy/pasted by Abbott as special session agenda items
Just as Texas House
leadership appears to have put congressional, Texas Senate, and SBOE
maps on a fast track that should make it possible for lawmakers to conclude
their extended stay in Austin by Tuesday, Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick is asking
Gov. Greg Abbott to again expand the agenda.
Patrick on Wednesday sent a
letter to Abbott asking him to add tuition revenue bonds to the call. It’s a
substantive topic, for sure, but it’s one that lawmakers may not have bandwidth
to address amid the flurry of the last five days of the special session. Maybe
Patrick just assumes a fourth special session is coming.
Or maybe he’s engineering
it.

Chair Meyer’s proposal would use $3 billion in federal coronavirus relief to provide a $533 check to everyone who claims a homestead in Texas
An unexpected Texas House
substitute for Senate Bill 1 – passed out of Ways &
Means this morning – would use $3 billion in American Rescue Plan
Act funds to provide a $533 check to everyone who claims a homestead in
Texas.
But be careful calling it “property
tax relief.” That’s not allowed under current guidelines for federal COVID
relief funding. Instead, the House proposal will likely label it something
vague. The bill neither compresses property taxes nor differentiates between
property values with that single check.

Texas House GOP campaigns in 2020 helped put Trump over the top in the election he now wants audited; next year’s primaries could be badly delayed if redistricting gets bogged down further thanks to another protracted debate over other election laws
First, it is no secret
that Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick maintains a friendly and working relationship
with former President Donald Trump, who as of late seems quite tuned in to
Texas legislative minutiae. In addition to intimidating Gov. Greg Abbott
over a “forensic audit” of the 2020 Texas election, Mr. Trump is now also
threatening Texas House Speaker Dade Phelan with a primary
if even more elections legislation isn’t passed this year.
At GOP events around the
state, Patrick often talks to party activists about how he can call Trump on
his cell phone at any time to talk about a variety of issues. “Nonstop
bragging,” as one Republican put it after attending such a speech. Others
thought it was “pretty cool” that Patrick and Trump are close.
How close?
