Emergency response is the responsibility of the EXECUTIVE branch. Not the legislative. And Ted’s elected responsibility is to represent the people in Texas in Washington DC.
So unless Ted can pass a law outlawing cold weather, or if an emergency appropriations bill is brought before congress (in DC by the way), there really isn’t anything Ted can do.
What’s the responsibility of the judiciary during a natural disaster? Should all state and federal judges be called home?
And if the people of Texas elect somebody like Beto because of media-fueled “optics”, y’all have bigger problems.
“...Ted can pass a law outlawing cold weather,....”
Ted is a Gorebal Warning denier...
