Subpar Talks

As Molly Ivins said, “The Texas Legislature consists of 181 people who meet for 140 days every two years. This catastrophe has now occurred [88] times.” She also quipped, “All anyone needs to enjoy the state legislature is a strong stomach and a complete insensitivity to the needs of the people. As long as you don’t think about what that peculiar body should be doing and what it actually is doing to the quality of life in Texas, then it’s all marvelous fun.”
 
 With that in mind, we look at some bills currently making their way through the Texas Legislature. Some will probably become law, some will not, and some are just idiotic. Have a listen and marvel at the peculiar place that is Texas. But first we share a listener email that calls us out for our lack of knowledge. Hi, Mark!
