Can you pm or email a draft copy of your bill so that I can start the process of getting someone in the Texas Legislature to sponsor a similar bill. Texas history humor, after six State constitutions and reconstruction battles after the Civil War we don't trust our Legislature enough to meet every year. They operate on the Bienium or every other year for only a 140 days from January - May.
