Texas legislators need to dump slogan & move more conservative policy | Sales tax numbers | Border – Pratt on Texas 12/7/2022

The news of Texas covered today includes:

Our Lone Star story of the day: It’s funny how Republican Texas legislators stick to their contrived P.R. slogan about last session, the 87th, being the “most conservative” in history. Was it? Maybe, maybe not.

Our Lone Star story of the day is sponsored by Allied Compliance Services providing the best service in DOT, business and personal drug and alcohol testing since 1995.

Local city sales tax numbers released and most all are up big – so why did so many raise property taxes?

The Rackspace disaster hits Taylor County.
