I'm preparing for my mini-semester class and intend to focus on legislation, whether alive or dead, in the Texas Legislature. I'll have my students summarize the politics surrounding the legislation. Here are few items so far:
Senate Bill 690, which "would raise the required number of signatures for a charter amendment in Texas’ 346 home-rule cities from 5 percent of qualified voters to 10 percent."
- Commentary from the Texas Observer.
House Bill 1893: Handguns on college campuses.
