The news of Texas covered today includes:
Our Lone Star story of the day: Regulating, raiding, dealing with “game rooms” has long been a big issue across Texas but, in Lubbock County some officials have acted as if it’s all new to them. Early in the year Lubbock Co. Commissioner Jason Corley proposed a program to deal with the game rooms but Judge Parrish and others were having none of it. But due to public pressure they said they’d take the summer to prepare an ordinance to discussed in September. It’s September, where is it?
A story out of Beaumont shows that many outside of Lubbock know these game rooms are a problem and have long been trying to keep them in-line. Maybe people in these other jurisdictions are not somehow being bought off by game room operators?
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.
The Paxton so-called “whistleblowers” won’t go away even after their sworn testimony made their claims unbelievable.
As I predicted, after months of decline in the Texas manufacturing sector, growth in the service sector has slowed. Retail remains in the dumps.
