A long form post legislative session interview with Texas state Senator Charles Perry, SD28.
On the massive state spending for border security Perry said: “We are currently going to build a $750 million chain link fence… A $45 set of bolt cutters can make hay of that fence pretty quickly.” Perry said that many colleagues, including Democrats, believe an “offensive posture” by the USA is all that will get our border with Mexico back under control.
We also talk a good bit about the difference between Senate and House leadership and why so much is stalling on the west side of the capitol.
Senator Perry discusses his ultimately successful effort to protect girls and girl’s sports in Texas despite constant and continuing media criticism that borders on the fantastical.
Property tax reform and the challenges such have been for legislators is discussed.
Senator Perry also talks about the new lines of SD28 and how he believes the district is now more aligned from an economic interest perspective.
